    Hi everybody! Was wondering if u can help me decide on a vid card for my dads pc?
    He has an MSI KM2M mobo so it has to be an AGP card. Am tossing up between the [bold]Radeon 9250[/bold] or the [bold]GeForce FX 5200[/bold]?? Both are approx the same price (about $80 New Zealand) so was just wondering what your thoughts are on these cards and if u had to choose one, which would it be??
    He is into gaming but not a huge way but i think we a half decent card he will be more into it. The last game he bought was Conflict Desert Storm.
    I think he currently has a geforce 3 PCI card. I know these arnt great cards but theyre better than what he has already plus its all i can afford. Am getting him an extra 512MB stick as well.
    Thanks!!!

    DingoPelt, ur a mad mongrel. For your information, im not gettin him a video card anymore, some other lousy mongrel is. You probably dont even know what a video card is. Probably think its something you use at ur local video ezy store. Flamin Gallah.

    I had the 9250 w/256mb and it worked alright for some games,right now I have a 9800 pro installed and I don't even use it at all but,the 9250 was a good card
