9000LE or 9200SE ?

[REDRAIN]

So many choices so much confusion? I'm building second Rig. I have a Ti-4200 64 MB in my first built. I"m not really a gamer... But you never know. My question is ( staying in the $100.00 range ) Do I go with an 9000LE ATI Radeon AGP 128MB w/ DVI/TV @ $80.00? The Power Color ATI 9200SE 128DDR AGP @ $84.00? Or bump myself ( which this may be EL Stupido Question ) go to the Connect T3D ATI Radeon 9500 128MB DDR DVI & TV (retail) @ $149.00. Or should I just stay with the BFG Asylum 64 MB DDR GeForce4 Ti-4200 AGP @ $72.00?

Other Components to my system:
AMD XP2400t or 2500t
Soyo Kt-333 Dragon Ultra P.E.
512 MB DDR
Santa Cruz Turtle Beach 5.1
Norcent 52x32x52 CD-RW
No Case yet
😕

I would stick with the 4200.

The 9000 and 9200 would be a DOWN grade.

The 9500 would be about on par, and the 4200 would beat it in some areas. I wouldnt upgrade unless you wanted to spend about 215 - 250 for a 9700 or 9800

otherwise your kind of wasting money ESPECIALLY if you dont game much.

Thanks. I appreciate the input. Much appreciated!

I've never heard of the 9000le, so I'm not really sure where it stands as far as performance. But assuming it's just either and under or overclocked 9000, then it would almost certainly be a downgrade. I agree you should stick with the ti4200
