    Leadtek NV34 Geforce FX5200 NV34 8XAGP 64MB VGA

    That's your videocard.  Here's some information about the FX5200 from the Nvidia website.

    "The only DirectX 9 compatible GPUs in their class, the 5200 models are engineered for compatibility with the latest gaming and multimedia software."

    See,  DirectX 9.  Here's another quote;

    "Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0 Optimizations and Support
    Ensures the best performance and application compatibility for all DirectX 9 applications."

    I'm going to at least get the 5200 model since it supports DX9.  As for a monitor,  get yourself a 17" and save yourself some money.

    Expensive is around $3000. :)  That's cheap!

    64 megs doesn't mean it's going to lag.  Lag comes from a bad Internet connection.  If the graphics seem choppy,  just play the game on medium detail,  or lower the res.

    I like to play games @ 1024x768x32bit and higher.  Anything lower and it's just to funny looking my 19" monitor.  image

    Here's your motherboard that comes with this setup.

    Enough!  I'm sick of everyone putting everyone else down.  Enough... who cares if Murt gets $100 a day for doing nothing.

    I bust my ass at my job,  and I don't get more then $8.25 an hour!  I could work at McDonalds making $9.50 an hour...  The minimum you need to make to live on your own in Connecticut is $18.00 a hour!

    So please... we all have issues,  if they aren't nice,  don't say them.

    That monitor isn't that good... 1024x768 max?!  I can do 1600x1200 and my monitor is crap.

    Why do you want another case?  I thought you where getting one with your setup?  Anyway,  it's from www.newegg.com,  but they are almost sold out,  I'm getting mine this Friday.  Well putting the shipping order in at least.  image

    21" is crazy!  I'm happy with a 17".  I'm about 2 feet away from my 19" and it's like looking at a 32" TV!  It's to big for my desk.  image

    really?

    ....Djin, this abs pc http://www.abspc.com/app/config.asp?mono=1621

    do you think thats in canadian dollars?

    image

  • DjinDjin Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 3,263

    The way things work I thought where,  if the site had a .ca at the end,  it's from Canada.

    If the site says otherwise,  it's always US dollars.

    If you go to www.dell.com it's USD,  if you go to www.dell.ca it's CAD.

    So yes,  it's US money.  If it was CAD,  that means it would be like $500 USD. :)
