Hi guys.
I'm lookin for buy a new VGA card..
These 3 video cards (TI4200, FX 5200, & Radeon 9000/9100) have similar price, but I don't know which one should I get...

Please help me out here.
Thank you.

The only thing w/ the Ti4200 is no DX9 support....but for todays games it (the 4200) is the fastest.

I'd get one of the DX9 cards. Yeah, the Ti4200 is the fastest of the cards mentioned, but for any games with DX9 features, it will be the slowest. By a long shot.

Abit SIluro TI4200 $84 64MB 8XAGP @ excaliberpc. BTW mwave has Ati Radeon 9700 OEM for $199, best bang for the buck!
