Default Which card is better?

Which card is better for Guild Wars?

XFX GeForce 6200 256MB AGP

Abit R9250-128ADT RADEON 9250, (128 MB) AGP


Clearly, the GeForce has double the RAM, but I read somewhere (I think) that the XFX GeForce cards are crap.

To be honest, neither is that great, but I would think that the GeForce 6200 is better.

Perhaps a better question would be, what is your budget - we can then help w/ the leg work in picking out the best card for the money...

Both cards are low-end cards which won't be able to deliver much in any game. As said before, your budget for the card or computer you want to buy will help people to find a better alternative if there is one.

They're both crappy, outdated and slow enough the thought of paying real money for either of them just seems.. wrong.

If you're buying a new video card because you want to play GW you should get something better, because you will not enjoy the game on either of those. I think the 6200 is slightly faster, though.

Default Why do people keep bashing xfx ?

For being such a crappy company why would they give double life time warranty and the only cards used in the professional tournaments? Well just saying i use there pro cards they run really cool with no fans (means very quiet) and never have Had trouble with it. but any way for a crappy card company they have one hell of a backing from the pros with cheap prices. www.xfxforce.com www.fatal1ty.com

My budget is a big, whopping, $0. I have just been able to 'salvage' both of those cards off of older computers for a newer computer, but which doesn't have a graphics card. So I'm just trying to figure out which one to put in. I guess I'll use the 6200.
