graphic cards
 

which is better ati x700 pro 256mb agp or NVIDIA GeForce 6200 8x agp?
ati is $99.99 while the other is $49.99.

I looking to buy one but im not sure if ati is worth the money.

Also, how would i know that my computer is compatible with either one of the graphic cards? Im using radeon 9200 that came with the computer i got awhile back.

dunno which is better but i can say if u run the 9200 u can run any of those, as long as they are agp.

ati x700 pro 256mb agp

NVIDIA GeForce 6200 8x agp has some known issues with stability depending on the manufacturer.

I would go with the ati x700 pro 256mb agp here also.. but you can pick up a Nvidia 6800 AGP and unlock some pipes (on AGP) to get a 6800 OC for about $130.. I went with Nvidia after a long ATI fanboy stage.

Reason... much better Linux support..(drivers)

I don't worry myself with graphics to much, so I am likely not the voice on this one.. but don't limit yourself to these 2 cards. AGP is not dead yet! :D
