Judge Hades Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 If you are near a best buy here is a list of video cards and prices. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?ty...ory&id=cat01151
Dark_Raven Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Since I am in the market for a new video card, anything listed on this page is better than what i currently have. Cheap is what I need to be at the moment. Is the eVGA - GeForce 6200 Graphics Card or the eVGA - NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 Graphics Card any good? Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Hassat Hunter Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 A GeForce2 works fine for Freelancer " I don't advise to buy anything with lower specs than a 6600GT, unless you like shopping for new cards... ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5. TSLRCM Official Forum || TSLRCM Moddb || My other KOTOR2 mods || TSLRCM (English version) on Steam || [M4-78EP on Steam Formerly known as BattleWookiee/BattleCookiee

Judge Hades Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 RIght now anything less than 6200 isn't worth the money. Nividia's 6600 or the Radeon x700 is the lowest one should go for a new card.
Dark_Raven Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Like this? $150 is what I can afford I believe. I will have to double check my account. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Llyranor Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Go for ATI, nVidia promotes communism through subliminal messaging in their products. Like Mr. Awesome says, x700 would fit. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
thepixiesrock Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 My computer is six years old, I don't want anything more than a $40 card going in it. Is that possible? Does it affect performance at all if it is a cheap one?

Llyranor Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 6 yrs old, eh? Just go for the cheapest one that will run Freelancer at a good framerate, then. No pointing wasting money into it. Check out which cards fit the 'recommended' spectrum for the game. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)

Judge Hades Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 (edited) Dark Revan, if you can find one at 256 mb. Spend a little more money and get this card: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1113954027220 That should last you till you want to upgrade the whole computer. Of course you could probably find it cheaper at Newegg or TigerDirect but if you want it "now," Best Buys are nearly everywhere. Edited April 1, 2006 by Judge Hades
