Video card recommendation needed!!!

helloagain

Junior Member
Any recommendation for a reasonable video card (in terms of cost and performance) and where to get it if possible for a good deal? I don't play any graphics intensive computer games at all and only some very simple picture/video editing. I don't want to spend a lot on it (my motherboard + processor = ECS K7SA + AMD XP 2GHz is only $99).

Thanks a lot and Merry Christmas.
 
i agree with the 8500... but some of the sapphire ones are severely underclocked (thanx for some cripples they have for ram).
 
He won't be gaming much so the core and mem speeds wont matter all that much. He should just get the cheapest 8500LE.

just wondering... how is sapphire's warranty compared to ATI's?
 
If you aren't playing any graphics intensive computer games AT ALL, as you mentioned, then even the 8500LE is overkill...try a 7200 or 7500 instead.
