« on: December 07, 2003, 09:05:00 PM »
well i want to buy a new "budget" video card for my old computer..i was originally thinking of getting a radeon9200se (by powercolor)...its $80...then i noticed a radeon9600se for $130 (by gigabyte)...so wats the better deal here?  i dont wanna spend more than $150 if possible...i DO want to play games on it, but $50 is still a significant difference to me.  
or any other suggestions for a good budget card?
