and this:

So in the next few weeks i should spend about 200 dollars for both cards, just for testing to see which card is a better upgrade from my 6200.

Note: I will be testing them all day, because this time i will have time to take it back to get a refund if one of them doesn't perform well. , so really i won't be wasting any money because i will have a change to take them back

How about just spending $200 on a decent, modern motherboard, CPU, and memory combo, and quit wasting your time with PCI video cards? I don't mean to be harsh, but you're really bringing this on yourself.

Edit: $200.

you guys do know that PCIe 1X is the same as PCI just changed around and with less pins. and legendary PLEASE PLEASE stop.

ImmortalKenny · 07-12-08

For the last time...

Legendary, why can't you understand that you are just wasting money on a worthless computer?!?!

yeah I had found that company's website a while ago when I was looking for a PCI to ISA adapter (don't ask). But yeah, everything they have is WAY overpriced.

And for the record, you CAN use that thing with x16 graphics cards.

It's just an adapter, it's not going to run at PCIE speeds because it's still going through a PCI slot.

EDIT: Grats on post #1500 btw
