I bought an xfx nvidia 6200 256ddr2 card to replace my ati radeon s110 9250 256megs and not seeing much of a difference.
The card is supposed to be agp x8 but it seems to be at 4x. Either did this wrong or my mb only does 4x. No idea but computer is a bit over 2yrs old and from Compaq. And in the setup the memory says 256megs but don't see any DDR2.
Stubbs zombie demo. Didn't work at all on the ati. Said video not supported. On the 6200 works but get a black screen.
I think its a little more sluggist for painkiller than it was on ATI but doom 3 works a little better i think.
I took the lastest drivers from nvidia 81.98. Never touched the ones that came with the cd.
Now thinking of sending it back (Will cost me shipping!)
Any tips? I'm a noob for installing this stuff. If this helps.
p4 2.53ghz 1gig ram Power supply is only 250watts. Running on XP.
My Main goal for getting this card was for Oblivion which i don't think would of ran on ati but the 6200 was listed in the FAQ.
Didn't want to spend too much on the card since i'll be upgrading the whole thing in 6-12months.
