which one should i get. i will be playing games so that is a factor. i also see that they are both around 200 bucks. or should i just stay with the lower priced geforce 3 ti200.

Get the G4 ti4200. It will be worth the wait and extra cost for it. The ti4200 is alot faster than the ti200.

get the ti4200 if u have the money. here is a link that shows how the ti4200 spanks the ti500... so u could imagine what it does to the ti200. but both these cards should suffice in the games u play... but if u can afford the luxury of playing at higher res and getting better fps... more power to u. :)

Hmmm ...let's see:
1. Ti4200 $200 or less and out performs all GF3s, perhaps can be OCd to perform as well as more expensive GF4s
2. GF3 Ti200 costs ~$150, performs 20% worse than Ti500, perhaps can be OCd to perform as well as Ti500, but still less than all GF4s

That IS a puzzler, I can see why you're confused.

Even if you overclock the Ti200 to Ti500 levels it'll still be slower than the Ti4200. Get the Ti4200.

going by reviews of the 4200 the 64mb version is the better card vs the 128mb

They got so many geeks buying power tools and other supplies for case mods they decided to help them save time by selling computer components as well. :)

I was reading about this, and the Ti4200 stomps the Ti500.

Enough said :)

Get the Ti4200.

The GF4TI4200 was released a couple of days ago but will take up to 2 weeks to hit the shelves as manus will have lots of demand for them.

Especially for us poor sods in the UK!
