Hi guys,
A while ago, (probably a few months now), I posted that I had a TNT riva card with 32 MB of memory.
I had asked what you guys thought I should upgrade first my sound or my video card.
Thankfully everyone answered the same thing, and I quote
UPGRADE THE VIDEO CARD FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Well that time has come. I am now the proud owner of a Geforce 3 ti 200 with 128 MB DDR. All I can say is sweeeet:D
Now all I need is high speed internet so I can get Unreal Tournament 2003. :rolleyes:

Thats cool, the best drivers for that card right now IMHO are the 30.82's, they give the best performance and remain stable....by the way, who made the GF 3 Ti 200? I have never seen one with 128mb before....

Click the pics for specs.
The price/quality ratio of MSI's products makes them very interesting for those looking for the best bang for the buck.

The geforce 3 ti200 is still a good card to use even if there are newer and better ones out.
Go for it!!!

Actually the card is from Aopen. Here's the link: Aopen Geforce 3 ti 200 (http://www.aopen.com/products/vga/gf3ti200-dv128.htm)
I really like this card. It has yet to give me any problems, (been playing grand theft auto 3 a lot easier now), and I did update to the 30* version of the drivers. (I had noticed you mentioned that in another thread Radical Dreamer).
To Adept good luck with the job hunt!!!:) :cool: :thumbs:

I also know Leadtek have 128MB GeForce 3 Ti200's, a friend of mine has one...
whereas, I am happy with my GeForce 2, I don't play games often anyway...
