Just got a GeForce FX 5500 with 512 megs of ram.... I had a GeForxe FX 5200(256) and according to my tests thus far.... I do not detect ANY noticable system improvments on any game.
A little looking around online has numerous people claiming the 5500 is nothing more then an earlier chip set repackaged with no real improvments and outdated technology.
I don't know if thats true.... I've never kept up with hardware-it is true?
Recommend me a new video card which is half decent.... absolute upper limit on it is $100.00.
I just want to play Oblivion.
*cries*
EDIT/UPDATE
I don't have that new of a motherboard so I can only handle an AGP.........
Just found out I can get a discount from newegg because of a promotion.
Any of you have any suggestions out of that lot?
Leaning towards this one, what do you think?
