Both cards suck balls. Why not hop on the web or toms hardware and do a bit of research. If the second digit of the card is lower than 6, its going to suck.

Im suprised that nobody mentioned this, but in regards to the orgional post... the 9250 pci card will not play BF2.

You need either an agp or pci-ex card or the game will crash at splash screen.

Don't be too surprised, I doubt many people here have ever used a 9250, let alone tried to run BF2 with it :P

I have a 7600GT. It actually pulls its power from the motherboard (pci-e slot), so no additional power connections are needed. I realize your PSU is "only" 300 watts, but the 7600gt is fairly low wattage considering....

I play 1280x1024 all medium except geometry high and 2xAA. Smooth as butta!!

so even tho it says that i need 400w for the 7600gt, if i have the pci express slot (which i do) it will still be able to run and not over heat/ make my computer crash?????

can i run the 7600gt or not?

:laugh: :hmm: :cry: :|: :evil: :)

I would say yes, but i would think about a new PSU (just to be on the safe side). They arent that expensive.
