Hi Guys,
I'm thinking of upgrading the video card in my PC to run G3 better. I currently have an ATI X500 128 Mb that came with the machine. It works OK, but not great. I have to turn off clouds and turn textures way down or off to get decent frame rates.
The range of Nvidia cards is confusing. I stopped by Best Buy today and saw 6200, 6600, 7300, 7600 and 7900 models. The different models had nothing, GS, or GT.
From what I could decipher, GT has a higher clock speed than GS. But, they sell GS cards with more 512 MB of ram for similar prices as GT cards with 256 MB of RAM.
What is more important to G3, RAM on the video card or processor speed on the video card? What are you guys running?
They had a 7300 GS with 513 MB of ram fro about $175.
