Finally, after years of use, my favourite ever card has died. My Ti4200 first started out in my mates dads PC, then i bought it for £80 and after a year with me my dad got it. Its finally given up the goat in my dads machine.

RIP Ti4200, my favourite card. For bang to buck it wiped the floor on my 6800.

i think that looks quite cool, looks a bit different to what we see today

Heheh, good cards. My brothers getting a 9800XT 256MB probs for about £25 so I'm hoping if nothing goes wrong, that'll be decent Bang for Buck too

I have a 4800SE in my cupboard waiting for a new home. Was very good value for money.

I had a 4200 and a 4800, both are still running in m8s pcs. 4200 was the best £150 and it was not much slower than the 4800

Oddly i replaced mine with a 9700 pro, but mine was rock solid, still in working order. I loved that card.
