How much better is an BFG Tech PCI-E 7300GS 256mb from a BFG Tech AGP Geforce 6200 256mb, both oced by 25mhx by default from bfg tech.

Much much better would the pci-e 7300gs be then the agp 6200? and benchmarks comparing? PLease stick to the question, and thanks in adavance 😛
 
Maybe 10% to 20% better, depending on the game. Not much, and certainly not a worthwhile upgrade.

The 7300 GS has a crippled 64-bit memory interface which really holds it back.

If you're upgrading from a 6200, you want at least a $100 X800 GTO...
 
yeah, but its going to cost me 30$ 😛 I would for sure do it, except the hassle of installing a new motherboard. I'm going to be kind of busy with sping break and all 😛

but it would definaly be better right? lol. Thanks, for the input, any more would still b helpfull, and benchmarks are something i would like to see if they are availible.

Then save your money for a PCI-E board.
 
Probably about 20% better.

I don't have any 7300 vs 6600 benches, but here are some 7300 GS vs 6600 GT benches.

A regular 6600 is still better than the 7300, a bit better than the X1300 in most things:

6600 is 20% betetr then the 7300? or the 6200? how much is the 6600 and 7300 compared to the 6200. thanks for all the wuick help.
 
guess I'll get the 6600 then, since i decided i'll not be lazy and install a new motherboard too. Thanks for the help, the 7300GS sounds so much cooler then the 6600 though haha, almsot makes me want to get the 7300, but i'll just get the 6600.
 
When you look at the specs, the 7300 GS doesn't look so cool:

7300 GS:
4 pipeline
62-bit memory interface

6600:
8 pipeline
128-bit memory interface

Sure the 7300 GS has higher clockspeeds, but the 6600 has it doubled in every major technical spec... core, and memory interface.
 
the 7300gs IMO

is a video card that someone has just becuase they need one , to watch movies or go on the internet

-not really ment for gaming , just office work with graphics

and

it should run Counter-strike 1.6 Great
and quake 3

=]

jesus loves
 
you wouldn't need anything like that for regular office use.....I used to game with a MX440 128MB.........couldn't play alot of newer games, but then i got a fx5500 and i gamed with that, could run most games, on low settings on some, and not well, but could play them., the little older ones i could run perfectly fine......I dont see how a 7300gs wold be a point to buy for office use.....
right now my 6200 even plays all games fine, bf2 on high, fear on med-high. why would you need or want to spend so much ona office pc...for online video watching.....you oculd have a MX440 for that....you could even use an mx440 for cs 1.6

i first had a 16mb video card, and tryed to play cs:cz, and some levels i would lag, so i got a 32mb from another pc, fixed the lag, for a max440 64, thn a mx440 128mb...i could pla4 cs:cz fine with no lag with the 64mb mx440.
 
not like microsoft apps office use

i ment a little video encoding here and there maybe some animation

i know your frames drop on 1.6 on an MX card -smoke grenades



6200 with high settings on Bf2 8O

Hahahahaha..............hahaha :lol:

That made my day. Oh, btw, I call BS. (unless you are at 640x480 and by play you mean 15 fps... then maybe.

how can i get fps to show on the screen on bfs, i can proove it 😛 I dont know what my fps is exactly when i play on high, but no noticible difference to my eye. 😛 (Except during massive explosions, like when me and my friends play on a ff off server and we put 12C4's on a teammate to lauch him lol, then it goes down a bit)
 
It just isn't possible. Do you have shadows turned completely off?

I have seen battlefield running on the max playable settings on several comps.
2500+ XP Barton 1 Gig ram, A7N8X, 9800 Pro 128mb-------> medium-low settings
2600+ XP Barton, 1 gig ram, A7N8X, 6800 128mb (my comp)----> medium settings
3200+ A64, 1 gig ram, ASrock dual SATA2, 7600 GT 256 mb------>medium-high settings
3200+ A64, 1 gig ram, EVGA SLI mobo, 7800 GT 256 mb----->high settings (lag for a 20 seconds or so when level loads while ram loads data)
3200+ A64, 1 gig ram, A8NE, 6200 Turbocache 64 mb(running with 256), low settings
3200+ A64, 1 gig ram, A8NE, 6600 256 mb,-----> medium settings

So, tell me how you play at max settings?

To see your FPS in BF2, go into the console with ~ then type: renderer.drawfps 1
 
Nope, I'll get a screen shot for ya 😛 And the rest of my system includes, 2GB DDR400 ram, and AMD 3100+ 1800mhz with 200gb sata hd 16mb cache, and some cheap sound card jsut to get off onboard.


I have the settings on the default "High" There is Low meduim high and custom, I choose "High" and left it at thatm if i turn aa on its to laggy, I'll be back sosn with a screenshot.

edit😀ont know how much this helps game performace but i am tweaker 😛 windows starts in 1 bar and a half, and everything after it gets past laoding sceen loads in less then a second. i hhave spent hours tweaking, minly windows.
 
blah,BF2 doesn't savescreenshots automaticaly in a folder?looked all over couldn't find them, guess ill have to go try and take some move and paint save each one.
