Hi All,
Been out of the upgradepc stuff for a while and thought id get a new
video card. Im not a hardcore gamer and play games on and
off.Sometimes stuff like RPG's or Call of Duty/Rome Total war type
games.
Have a Nvidia Hercules Geforce 2MX 440 32mb (heck i cant remember the
proper model number).Am looking at low- mid range card and seem to
have it narrowed down to.

ASUS V9520Magic-T, GeForce FX5200,128MB,TV-OUT
Sparkle GeForce FX5500, 256MB, TV/DVI
Sparkle GeForce FX5700LE, 128MB, TV/DVI
Sparkle GeForce FX5700LE, 256MB, AGP8X, TV/DVI

Im leaning towards a FX5500 because i seen a review once it was the
best value card at some stage but they seem hard to find here in
Sydney lol.
What does LE mean?

Any comments?

Ps: I only have a Duron 700MHZ WinXP 512mb machine but its fine for my
purposes - am planning to upgrade CPU Mobo HD the works at some point

I am in the same boat as you...

Just to confuse you further, the Geforce 6600GT seems to be getting some
good press. I am having a hard time finding an AGP version, even though they
"apparently" do exist.

Good luck

Paul
