quality graphics

[aznxguy2o9]

i use to have a 9700 pro until i sold it
i only play counterstrike and since counterstrike is not a high end graphics game i'm assuming my 9700 pro pushed the graphics to its fullest

since i only play counterstrike i was thinking of buying a lower end card that would suffice my craving for counterstrike

how bout a asylum geForce fx 5200 128 ddr ram
or a 9000 pro

if i buy either one of those 2 would i notice a difference in graphics while playing counterstrike
i know probably in games like unreal 2003 i would

any suggestions would help or opinions on cards99.99 or lower

You shouldnt notice a difference in games around the same age as Counter Strike, but you will in newer games, like UT 2k3 just like you said. I would probably go with the FX 5200, but thats just me.

hmmm.... i was assuming that i got fx 5200 non ultra for 80 bucks at besy buy didnt that it was bad since i paid 5x more for my 9700 pro

that's too bad u sold it.....the 9700 pro would have been good for latest games coming out like DoomIII, HL2, DuesEx2,ThiefIII, halo......if i was u i would have kept it! But since u only play counterstrike, i would go with Radeon 9000, it supports directx to the fullest than Nvidia.
