Hi my pc is stuggling on a few games at the moment, im running a barton 3200+ with a 6800nu 128mb.
I was wondering if i get a x800xtpe is it worth it and will it run games for a while? Im using a dell 2005fpw so my 6800nu gets crippled in hi-res but manages low res's preety good, will the x800xtpe sort this out?
I really dont want to spend loads of money and get a whole new system with PCI-E gfx.
I can maybe pick up this x800xtpe on the cheap.
 
well i can achieve near 5k in 3dmark 05 - but the card does less than 1fps in hi res with full details - i dont believe this is because the card cant generate the fps but its because it lacks the 256mb ram, but i suppose it might not be worth it if my fps only increases slightly.
