What's Your Video Card?

[xycho_g]

FMV, Full Motion Video, usually yun ang intro ng mga games, yung mga animation sa simula. Actually, mahahalata mo na kaagad pag nahihirapan ang card mo sa mga graphic intensive, lalo na yung 'magalaw' na camera during the FMV sequence.

 

Ayos lang dre, Gunbound is a good game, minus the GFX (graphics). Which brings me to my other point, not all graphics and resource intensive games are good.

Wow, dami rich-kids dito sa MTC! How much do those videocards cost? $500-600?

I would love to have one but can't afford it though.

 

At present, I am still making do with my Leadtek GF Fx 5900xt 128mb.

It shows it's age when I play the newer crop of games.

Now if I could only win the lotto...

[rakista_royale]

eto lang sa akin

GeForce FX 6800 ultra 256 Mb AGP 8X at GeForce FX 5200 128 Mb

[artilles]

mine is ge cube 9550 128mb extreme. 512ddr 400

 

so far, ok nman sya sa mga games. medyo nagkakaroon lang minsan ng skips kapag doom3 na ang game ko. Minsan, sa nba 2005 din. tolerable nman. i play all games kung ano ang default nya.

 

i dont overclock, kasi stability and long term use nman ang habol ko. Balita ko kc kapag nag overclock ka, it has the risk to "shorten" the life span of your video card.

 

plus, takot din akong pakialaman ang pc ko. bka magkaroon pa ng sira bigla. hehe.

[textickles]

GeForce FX 5200 128 Mb lang yung akin

[kensters]

Geforce 5500 128mb - for my World of Warcraft

Geforce 6600 256mb - City of Villains

 

both of my PC have 1GB of memory

 

MMORPG's is the best there is...

[Kurtsky Keigee]

so madami din palang negative sides ang geforce 5500 madali palang uminit? pero ok naman daw eh pde din pala pag laro ng WoW..

hmmm.. pero most newer games like farcry and doom 3 i doubt kung gagana

ATI 9550 hands down...the extra additional 128MB is zilch of the 9250 as you don't expect to play games with high AA/AF on that card. But for $80 won't you be able to buy a 9800 Pro or even the 9800 XT version? Or if you are going for Nvidia why not 6600 vanilla or 6600GT...I don't know the price though, I see that you quoted in USD.

 

Anyway, I am using a Sapphire Atlantis 9800 Pro flash modded to XT speeds. I still no reason to replace it, it still puts out good frame rates even for new games (e.g. F.E.A.R.) but not in the highest settings of course. :cool:

thanks for the feedback! the 6600 was actually suggested to me by the people who worked in the store. but the cheapest 6600 available costs $130, which is just way over my budget. so i ended up settling for a 6200 instead.

 

the 6200 is actually a bit of a let down. games like hl2 and need for speed most wanted can be played only with medium settings. but for the price i paid for it, i shouldn't be complaining. the 6200 is a great entry level card, and can play older games like the first half life on max settings. DVI output is a plus too..text has never looked sharper, and there is now overall better contrast when viewing high resolution images. there really is a discernable difference between DVI and standard VGA.

 

lesson learned: getting the best card usually means buying the most expensive card you can afford.

[Phrozhen.Khold]

Yeah thats basically it... if you want high performance... better have the cash for it...

 

This is what I have in my box (Modded Lian-Li PC-71)

Not really, it could just be personal preference for most users. Personally though, I think Nvidia rules the local scene because ATI abandoned the AGP format too early. All their newer cards (X series) are for PCI-express while Nvidia still produces AGP versions of their 6-series. Thus, in a market where AGP boards are still being sold, naturally Nvidia and only choice nila.
