My step-brother just traded me a RADEON 9200 (PCI) video card for a RADEON 9600 PRO (AGP slot I believe it's called) .. I'm assuming the 9600 is better, just to clarify, is it?
Make it more simple.. that story is hard to tell what I got, lol
I gave him the 9200, he gave the the 9600.
AGP is faster then pci.
But the 9600 is a newer card than the 9200 obviously so its going to be faster.
Alright, so I got the deal.
It seems like it's not as good actually.. (after playing Call of Duty 2).. why could this be?
COD2 requirements:
? Pentium IV 1.4GHz or AMD Athlon XP 1700+ processor or higher
? 256MB RAM (512MB RAM recommended)
? 3d Hardware Accelerator Card Required ? 100% DirectX 9.0C compatible 64MB
REVIEW TEST system:Page with Review and COD2 requirments
? Pentium IV 3.0GHz (Northwood Core)
? 1GB Kingston V.R
? Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800PRO 128mb
How does your system compare?
How well did it play on the 9200?
You may just have to tweak the in-game options to some lower levels.
Make sure you system is using the 9600 and not an on-board (motherboard) chip.
I have an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ 2.21GHz, 1.25GB of RAM. It played excellent on the RADEON 9200 (PCI) and this a RADEON 9600 PRO (AGP) which I know is faster.
Still can't figure out what the problem is.
