So like the title says i'v been getting alot of errors on my computer and it will randomly restart. So i'm thinking its the video card because i got a blue screen of death type of screen that says check my video adapter and i also got another error in the Event viewer wich looks like a video problem.

Anyways i seen this one forsale on a forum:

ATI 9200
ATI 9200 - VGA/S-Video out - comes w/ Box, Manual, Driver/Software CD
$45 shipped

Here's a pic: Video Card

I will be building a new computer in a month or two. This one will probably be going to my brother, i'd like him to be able to play some games and shit on it. Would this be a good purchase or should i like for somethin else. ( I dont wanna spend more then a 100 bucks on her.)
 
Ok, i probably should have done this before i started this thread, but i just looked on pricewatch.com and few other and it seems as though i can get this card new for the same price. :eek:

Well my request from the card experts, what would be a wise choice for this computer (specs in sig) for say under $100 bucks.
 
I would go and get a Geforce 6600gt for that kind of money, can be found for 100-120 if you look hard enough. Prolly the most bang for the buck to be had for that price range by a huge margin.
 
Or if he can find one used on a FS/FT forum, get the unlockable 6200 card, they get to nearly 6600 non-GT speeds.
 
Definetly a used 6600 vanilla or 6600gt. 6200 is an option, but make sure you get the wider 128 bit bus.
