I think the Radeon 9100 for $65 shipped at Newegg is a better deal.

how does this compare to the gf ti4200?

 

[Ionizer86]

Probably a tad slower, as a R9100/R8500 is comparable to a GF4 Ti4000 (should they exist). Basically, extrapolate down from TI-4600 through TI-4200, then take off a small tad of performance, and you get a R9100.

Toms Hardware Guide's VGA chart has more information.

Oh, um ordering at Newegg, you can get a freebie like a shirt, cap or zodiac block

The ti4200 would blow it away, and can be had for as little as $15-20 more.

K1114, Other than travelling across the country to get to a B&M Fry's, where can you buy a TI4200 for $85-$90? I'd love to find one at that price.

Did you notice this card is clocked at 275/275? That's MUCH faster than most 9000's...

And the Tyan cards always seem to OC well in reviews, you just can never FIND any!

Nice, that 250/250 Transcend 9100 looks good for $65. Alternatively, you can get an FIC 64MB 9000P for $59 shipped (it comes with a DVI-VGA adapter and an s-video cable), but the 9100 is a better deal for gamers.

I honestly don't know if either FIC or Transcend are well-regarded companies.
