Thanks.......

ati all-in-wonder pro x600
when I bought it, it was about $200. but ati has released a new all-in-wonder, the x1300 if I remember, it is also around $200. Both can import and export tv. can import fm. and they can import/export composit and hdtv

eVGA 7800GTX

~$350

I play every game at 1600x1200 on maximum settings. It's mighty pretty :D

BFG GeForce 6200 OC with 256 MB RAM.

I play at 1024 x 860 with maximum settings. It's not bad, considering I got that card for $129 Canadian.

I use an XFX 7800 GT OC 256mb, it runs about $290 - $300. I got it back when it first came out for $400. Worth every penny. I plan on grabbing another one for SLI eventually.

XFX has a nice double-lifetime warranty out, and their e-mail support is well above standard from my experience.

nvidia Fx 5500 runs it at 1024 x 768, on max with close to 75 FPS


yes that you get 75 fps when your staring at a wall......I had an fx5700 oc'd with watercooling and I could never get that high. The best i got was like 30 fps. Thats complete bull there. I have an amd 64 4000+ with 1.5 gigs of ram (back when i had hte 5700) and I never got that high.
I also forgot to mention my fx5700 was the 256mb version.


Now i have an ati x850 XT pro....great card. 1280x1024 100+ fps

I just bought that card and I can't figure out why halo won't work. What 3D settings are you using ?

Intel Integrated 64MB Extreme(ly bad) 828457G.
No transform and lighting, 20 FPS limit (for constantly maintaining), no spartan colors, but it gets the job done.
