    only open this if u know alot about video cards

    ok, i was gonna wait till christmas to get my 6800gt, but right now , i need a videocard with s-video out to play movies(downloaded) on my tv in the game room. i told my dad if he gets a videocard without telling me, when i get my 68gt, im pulling anything that hes gonna put in my pc out and install my 68gt, today, he went out telling me hes going to the clinic, and brings back a bfg 6200 overclocked 256mB, and told me that he will never let me get a 500$ canadian video card such as the 68gt. so im asking u is that does my card run bf2?

    The card is supported, but, I would have thought it'll only play half decent on low settings.

    Your dad doesn't like games does he

    Wait for the gt @ christmas, you will love it

      Just FYI, s-video out to TV = crap. The be decent you need an HD-TV with DVI input.

        And you're telling this to a kid because he can afford all of that?

        S-Video works fine for a normal television.

        The 6200 is a decent budget card. Save the $500 for your future education or something...not on a videocard that is already obsolete...

          The 6800gt is only 250ish U.S.

            S-video works if you don't mind not being able to read anything on the desktop or any text.
