I'm looking at getting a new video card for my machine that I do work on. I want to run dual monitors from it and basically just use it for web development work and surfing the internet. I bought a Radeon 7000 for $50 ( which seems to be to much $ for something that old ) The card seemed to be sending choppy screens and slow scrolling.
I have a open X16 PCI Express slot on my board and some PCI slots. I'm looking for something cheap ( around $50) that will give me the requests above. No gaming or anything like that. All I need is it to just run programs like photoshop, macromedia products, etc. and a few internet browsers. Any info on this subject and ideas are great! Thanks |

Pretty sure the GForce FX5500 has come down in price, that would do the job for you amicably.

Thanks for the info on the card! I checked into that one and liked it. I then came across the eVGA GeForce 6600 LE with 256MB and picked it up for $82.00 and three day free shipping. A little over the price range, but the 256MB caught my eye and it has a built in fan |

your video card problem
i think you just need to get a new motherboard if you have pci because that is kinda old school you need to get a motherboard with AGP on it. because pci is getting a tad outa date and is really slow compared to AGP and dont worry not all AGP motherboards are hefty to pay for. same for the video cards if you a good price on one shop eaby.
