WTB PCI video card (for Win/UAE)
« on: May 27, 2008, 07:32:02 PM »
To make this post Amiga related, I am stating I will use this PC for UAE ;-)

I need a GFX card for my oldest son's computer. The AGP shot is shot, so I need a PCI GFX card. No PCI-E, No PCI-Express, just PCI. The computer had a GeForce FX 5500 PCI, but the cooling fan died and fried the GPU.

Anyone have a PCI GFX card for sale at a reasonable price? I'd like about the same generation, but am willing to hear any offer.

Thanks for the response. These 2 cards are a bit under-powered for a Athlon 1800 system, but if no-one else speaks up I may take you up on your kind offer.

Also, it's a dual head card with tv out. It was supposed to be about as good as you can get on a pci system with Aero, just doesn't preform. Works nice with the standard 2d classic GUI on Vista, and perfect on XP. As soon as you switch on Aero everything crawls. I don't get it. I have a power mac g3 with a rage 128 PCI running 10.4 and it's smooth.

@koaftder

Sounds perfect, depending on asking price of course :-)
