graphics card help.

[Kenoi]

well, seems that the old GeForce2 MX/400 died on me a couple days ago, now I re-installed a new graphics card... which is Nvidia GeForce 6200. a slight upgrade, but I KNOW it wont let me run high end games... but the question is,

what other games can be played on the PC with this card? (at a decent rate of gameplay) cause I'm really leaning forward to getting the 'orange box' or Counter Strike Source. . .

(no flaming please, its just a question.)

you won't be able to play much but CSS should work. i used to have 5600 on my older PC and I played CS 1.6 and CSS just fine.

To know for sure if your games can be run, visit: Can You Run It?


Install the software and let it run. It'll tell you whether the GPU is good enough to handle it.

And if you have Warranty with your GPU, you should be able to replace the one that died. That's why I liked buying XFX cards, they have lifetime warranties and if the card stops working by itself, they'll replace it - I actually replaced my old 8600gt last year after it burned out after about 18 months. They sent me a brand new one. Not sure what kind you have or your warranty though but it's worth checking out the manufacturer's website.
