Have a desktop with a broken Matrox 550 low profile AGP card and need a replacement, nothing special and for under £100 or cheaper but with direct x 9 support?


Thanks

The AGP 6200s are TurboCache aren't they? Not bad if you have a lot of RAM, but if you have less than 1GB I would avoid. Can't remember which shaders the FX series supports, but it should do.

The PCI-E version is TC (32/64MB onboard + system ram) :) I think you can still pick up the non TC version in AGP and PCI-E.

Although it doesn't matter if it's for general / low end use :p

what is turbo cache? I might want to play a few networked games. How will it affect me?
The oc site have a XFX 128 and 256 version, and a 128 leadtek version, which is best?

I presume the 256 version is better than the 128 version as its only a quid or 2 difference? They do a 512 version but that is like an extra £30
