    You can get a program, i have motherboard manager 5. You can get it from
    mbm.livewiredev.com/download.html.
    This will tell you your cpu temp and motherboard temp. During each game record the temperature of the cpu and motherboard and tell us what you got.

    I used to have an ATI Radeon 9200 PCI 256MB. It was old and ran on PCI, so I recommend to BUY A NEW CARD to play games the way thery're meant to be played, even if yours is AGP. [23x faster now p/sec.: I own BFG Tech nVIDIA GeForceFX 5900XT OC] BFG Tech is a very good, respectable, professional, awesometastic company. No kidding, really.

    Also, check out this WIERDazz, homosapien, loony-bin DOOM 3 site. You have to see to believe. It hurts me to see people like this still alive.

    hahahahahahahaha. OK. What are they, like $50 right now at CompUSA/Best Buy?! That's a pretty good sign about how "good" the card is most of the time. I guess you were saying the 9200 is good, I couldn't really make those first few sentences...

    I have good news: To see decent graphics, you'll have to throw away your 9200 and look at KILLZONE exclusively on PS2. What's the good news? I just saved a bunch of money on car insuran...

    Yes but that's because you've got a 9800, not a 9200

    Need I remind you of the GF4MX, GFX5200 and the GFX5800? nVidia is NOT the best because you know what? If that wasn the case, ATi would be outta business.

    Depends on your budget:
    - As cheap as possible: Radeon9200/GFX5200
    - A bit more than nothing: Radeon9600/GFX5700
    - Competitive: Radeon9800/GeForce6800
    - Plenty: GeForce6800GT
