Returned my old vid card

[tomster2300]

Refurbished? Yuck. I never buy any pc equipment that's already been used once. It's just smarter, pay the extra bucks and buy new. On the other hand, I'm glad not everyone heeds that advice because I sold my old geforce 4 ti4800se a couple of months ago on Ebay to a guy in Spain for $80.

EDIT: Original price of 4800se $130, sold for $80 ~ I was happy (and this was when the 6800s were coming out too).

I've purchased, used, and abused refurbished equipment and never had trouble. Although I've heard many people swear they'd never do it after having bad experiences. I think I'm just a lucky SOB

Yep

BTW, I wouldn't get the 6800 vanilla at all. It sucks in so many different ways I can't even count them all. They don't even benchmark that thing very often since it's such a joke.

Another useless statement from someone that knows jack. Your integrated X200 will run BF2, I know because I have the same PC. NOTE, your PC only has a 300 watt power supply, which should be fine for a 6600GT but not for a 6800GT. If you look at newegg they normally tell you the recommended power supply for each card.

Also, to find out how video cards compare when playing BF2, check out the anandtech comparisons of video cards:

I don't know jack eh? That's a bold statment considering you don't know me.
