Okay.. I got someone into getting me a card online like everyone has been telling me.. I went cheap as always but will this play the new games on at least low settings? Its 128 Bit and Direct X 9.. So it isnt SE crap or direct X8 and bellow.. http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814164021R Its referbished.. Will that mean it will be more likely to.. die or something? Or what? Lol Iv heard bad and good about referbed stuffs..

I've bought 2 motherboards & 3 video cards thru Newegg's refurbed section. One video card gave me problems, so I exchanged it for another....the other stuff all worked fine.

I know newegg carries a lot of Rosewill products but I don't know if they're any good or not. 256MB is unecessary, but for $60, you can't beat it. I say, GO FOR IT!

Jam, I noticed that you've changed from a Ti4800SE to a 9550 128mb.

At the moment, the 9550 is £40 here in the UK, I wouldn't mind changing for a DX9 card for San Andreas (Been waiting for that game since completing Vice City) but i'm not interested in forking out lots for a new card until total-upgrade time, so a card in that price range would be ideal.

I was considering making the switch to the 9550, or a 9600pro/xt (not much dearer) . Your Ti was faster than mine, so if you noticed an improvement, then I should hopefully notice a bigger improvement.
Is it worth it?
