Im a tight arse, and at the moment i need a video card that is better than the one i have.
I currentely have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 64mg, but i can get a RADEON 9250 128mg for $70. What is your opinion on this price and the Video Card? Is the 9250 better than the one i have already? They are both PCI's and keep in mind that im in Australia so $70 would be:
US $55
Britain £30
Canaidian $65
New Zealand $75

is better than your old card. if you have an agp slot on the motherboard, see if you can get an agp card instead of pci as the agp will be 2x or more faster than the pci

an agp slot is usually brown, about the same length as your white pci slots but set back further from the backend of the case than the pci slots. what is the make & model of your motherboard?
