Guest helloimtim Posted May 31, 2005 CID Share Posted May 31, 2005 I touched on this in another thread. I decided to post this hear as well to see what others may have to say. I had always seen others post about how great agp cards were. How much faster they were than pci cards. In my experience that is just not the case. I had a pci card (9250) with 256 memory. It ran doom 3 just fine. I only paid 100 bucks for it. Now this agp (5500) with 256 memory on a system that runs 512 megs of ram. This card I paid 140 for. Strange it will not run doom unless everything is set as low as it can go and the pci card would run full blast. So I would almost guess the new pci e express with probally be the same. While costing more it will still not deliver the way a pci or agp for the same price. Any thoughts on this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
