I liked Splinter Cell alot (I had the Gamecube version. It was lacking but it was still fun), so today I went and bought Pandora Tomorrow for the PC.
And stealth multiplayer sounds pretty cool. I looked at the box for the system requirements: Supported Video Cards at Time of Release: ATI 8500/9000/9700 NVIDIA GeForce 3/4 families "Hrmmm. I have a 128MB GeForce 4 MX, wonder if I'll run into any problems??" I installed the game just fine. But when I go to start game, the game boots me back to Windows! I got through the CG intro just fine. Even created a file save. But couldn't play!! COULDN'T PLAY!!!  *shakes fist at video card* I have heard that Doom 3 is alot more demanding though.[/rant] Anyway, I was wondering what's a good video card for under $200??? --d-_-b --------------------  |

Get a Radeon 9600 or 9600 PRO edition, I use the non-PRO version myself. Got it at $140 at Best Buy. It in itself is a pretty good card, maybe not as powerful as a 9500/9700/9800 but good for its price.
