[jpollorena]

why does this card cost so much for what it comes with?!

[grayday16]

ive been looking for this card online but cant find it. lol

[bstank87]

@grayday16 for the PCI version, check out geeks(dot)com. it is there for $15 as of right now. I recommend pretty much anything else you can find these days unless you are absolutely limited to only a PCI slot and only have $20 to spend

[bstank87]

@grayday16 you can find it on geeksdotcom for 15 clams+shipping. Really, I would recommend any other interface and pretty much any card you can find on a retail site for better performance. But for that 15, it is a thing of beauty.

[pryvisee]

Will it run on a 250W Psu?

[Coolbri1191]

@pryvisee yeah you should be fine

[qiman2]

@Coolbri1191

god, i wish i could afford this... what directx level are you running it on?

[catajunyor]

Hey, I'm getting an new processor and graphics card. I am sure that my NVidia Geforce 440 with AGP8X can run the game( I've tried and it went with up to 40 fps)

I will get an GeForce 6800 GT, or something like that, and an AMD Athlon 2.6 Dual Core processor. Can Team Fortress 2 run on max settings with up to 40 fps?

[Coolbri1191]

@catajunyor idk about maxed, but definitely 40fps if u play with settings. just don't put AA on and u should be okay

[catajunyor]

@Coolbri1191Thanks for the tips. But I downloaded on my bad PC, that I still have.

MANY textures were missing. Would this happen on the new stuff?

[Coolbri1191]

@catajunyor Sounds like you have corrupted .gcf files, did you download directly from Steam?

[catajunyor]

@Coolbri1191 Yes, I did.

[catajunyor]

@Coolbri1191 Yes, I did.

[Coolbri1191]

@catajunyor Do you have updated drivers directly from Nvidias website?

[catajunyor]

@Coolbri1191 No, my drive is was buyed at an store. It's very old. BTW, my computer

Won't support NVidia series newer than 400 series.

[catajunyor]

@catajunyor I mean, the graphics card.

[grayday16]

btw how many watts does your power supply has. bcuz iwant to make sure if my 200-250 watts is good enough to run that card

[grayday16]

can this card run dragon age origins?

[Coolbri1191]

@grayday16 is there a demo for it? cuz im just now getting this pc back up and running so i might even put up a video.

[grayday16]

@Coolbri1191 i dont think there's a demo man.

and i have a geforce fx5500 and theres no text in the menu of the game and the fps is low so i was wondering about your card. you can probably google the system requirements to see if you can run it.

[Fucklesticks]

@grayday16 No dude sorry, that game takes a piss on a 9600gt so i don't think so.

[thenobslol]

my Video Card is Nvidia Geforce 9400 GT.

AMD 2.7 Ghz..

3G RAM space.

and Nvidia PhysX

[thenobslol]

i set my game on High like Tesxtures and shder effects and HDR on High and i steted it on my Very high 6 MSA or sonthing

[supafreek1234]

what software did u use to overclock this card? i can't find anything to work with this card.

[Coolbri1191]

ati tool, bro

[coolgirl2860]

will this video card allow you to watch Youtube HD? PLease message me bakc quickly :D

[Coolbri1191]

depends a lot on your cpu.

[coolgirl2860]

I have a Intel Celeron 2.4 and a sucky intel 82845 and my videos are laggy and i was wondering should i upgrade the processor and the graphics card or just the card

[Coolbri1191]

oh my... you might as well get a new computer. the money you put into getting a new graphics card and processor would be a waste compared to saving for a better computer :/ ..i know from experience :(

[PalaceOfExile]

I bought the card hoping it would allow me to play games like Dawn of War and Age of Mythology smoothly. No such luck. And I'm still stuck using it on my 9 year old windows xp home edition. 2D games are all I have...

[Cod3onlineplayer]

same :(

[ndkblackhawk]

Buy a new pc, If you buy a new one you only pay 400 euro for a quite a decent one ;D

[poce260]

is readon 2400 is beter than x1300

please reply

[ndkblackhawk]

yes :)

[Lukkmaestro]

Nothings wrong with your voice dude :P

[killerofporn]

radeon x1300 rules!

[BritishRider]

I'm bidding on one of these cards to go in my old PC to sell on ebay. =D I'll test it out first and do some vids on it before I sell it.

[Coolbri1191]

nice! though i would recommend one of the newer pci cards that are out ;)

[BritishRider]

I doubt I can pick them up for a couple of £ though lol.

[daweirdodude]

How many watts does the Stock Power Supply have?

[Coolbri1191]

i believe a 200w

[ufee]

A nice upgrade if you're running integrated graphics.

[ddaarrkkssttaarr8877]

how well do you think you could run left 4 dead?

[Coolbri1191]

bad. i ran it on my dell 2400 (P4 3.06ghz HT 2gb ram) with a Newer PCI gfx card (HD 2400) and got horrible frames.. like 10-20 if i remember correctly, with low settings :(

my newer rig plays it at 100fps maxed out 4x AA :0

[Burdick29th]

it will actually run well, i pirated it and got a avg. of 25 frames with a mix of high and med. 1024x768 res

[Sanja326782]

I can run Tem Fortress 2 on max. with ati x1300/1550

[kidcouger]

i could run it at medium with a FX 5200 xD

[u2konline]

HL games are easy to run on any card tho.

[u2konline]

I was at walmart today, they have a visiontek x1300 card there for 100 dollars on sale from 130 bucks LMFAO. PCI cards are expensive, good thing i am buying my last one which is also 100 bucks soon, its the bfg 8400gs.

[kidcouger]

i got a agp version for $35 i saw the x1300 pci for $115 at walmart,walmart has gone mad with power...

[AlanWildHeart]

I dont understand. I have the same graphics card along with these system specs:

Dell Dimension 3000

Pentium 4 CPU 2.8 GHz

2046MB

I dont know the hard drive

ATI Radeon X1300 PCI 256MB

But my computer could never run that good

[Coolbri1191]

run it at the same settings i did. also drivers could affect it

[PIKACHU49386]

for only $140 thats a great card!

[Coolbri1191]

i think i got it for 120

[ismellhome]

when u load a video game and u see that bar that says loading loading loading... it is loading all the data it needs into your ram so.. having a slow hard drive has nothing to do with why your performance is sucking balls, sence the game is loaded into your ram it means your comp either sucks balls, or that vid card sucks balls... i had that vid card years ago and it sucks balls

[Coolbri1191]

you are right, but still wrong. when you record with fraps it has to save it to the hard drive, thats why it stutters.

[tunkunrunk]

i've bought two secand hand video cards on the web , but they were damaged (ati hd2400 and geforce6200) there are a lot of swindler on internet who sell damaged graphic cards

[Coolbri1191]

buy computer parts from newegg and tigerdirect... only. they are the ones i trust. believe me, if you got bad parts its not the companies fault, its the people who shipped them.

[u2konline]

Half life games are easy to play, they are not too demanding. The X1330 is great, but the Diamond X1550 which is kinda impossible to find is even better.

[Merkalott]

I've Got A Dell Dimension 2400, I Plan On Buying A GeForce 6200 256MB PCI Graphics Card.

I Hope It Can Play COD4 Fine On Low Settings.

I've Alos Got Windows Vista Ultimate On My Dell, It Runs Fine And Pretty Fast.

Would This Card Run COD4?

[STARSLeonSKennedy]

no, it will run like 8fps low

[joseanzaldua]

The Minimum you need is a 9800 gt depending on the resolution u wanna run.If you only have pci slots then get a new computer man.haf life 2 came out way after your computer cuz i have a dell dimension 3000 and its fast but its not for gaming. a new compaq will be better for gaming.i reccomend ebay cuz they got exellent computer prices. remember to look for a pc that has pci express x16 slot. if ur on a budget then your gonna want a radeon hd 2900 xt or preferrably a Radeon hd 3870

[joseanzaldua]

my intel intergrated gma x3100 can run this game about as good as the radeon x1300 so it kinda gives you an idea of how good this card is

[nfsu2gamer]

i can play crysis on low/medium on my new office pc! (1024x768)

specs:

sempron le-1150 2.0ghz@2.35 ghz

igloo 7700 cooler

1 gb ddr2 800mhz kingmax

ECS MBO 7050m-m (has a pci-e slot)

[nfsu2gamer]

Maxtor 160 gb hdd

dvdrw 18x

codegen 3326-ca+300w

runs at 25 fps (costed bout 280$)

[beundertaker]

the card is shit. Just get a HD radeon 2600pro it's like 30 dollars.

[eeeeban]

I had a dell that was 1 up from yours, and it only supports 1GB of ram on a stock MOBO.

I now have a custom built gaming computer

8GB DDR2 800 RAM OCz Platinum

500GB SATA

NVIDIA GeForce 9800GTX+ 512MB Video Card

[vincentisais555]

this card sucks get a 9400gt it has like 60-120 fps i have a 3.0 with ht

[Coolbri1191]

in PCI form?

[nfsu2gamer]

pci-e

[TheDiabloKnight]

what is the minimum power supply requirement for this card...

[Coolbri1191]

a 250-300w power supply.

when i had this running in my dell, i had a 350w that worked just fine.

[STARSLeonSKennedy]

im excited to get this card, i ordered it, its not the best, but ALOT better than what i have. currently have life 2 gets like 10 fps at the lowest settings, i think it was like the first video card ever or sumthing lol, im excited to see detail on the gravity gun!

[cupofrice]

Do you know how TF2 runs with the x1300 AGP?

[davidimon]

you say you have a new system eh? can i buy this card off you?

[Coolbri1191]

:/ im giving it to my friend for christmas cuz he cant afford a gfx card.. and has a Dell B110 (no agp or pci-e)

[zIIEnzoIIz]

Hey, I Got A Dell Dimension 2400 And I Was Wondering Is This The Best Video Card I Can Get For It?

[Coolbri1191]

currently i believe it is the Albatron Geforce 8600GT PCI w/ HDMI output, look at their website its there. but good luck ever getting a hold of one!! haha

[BergluX]

I thought the Dell Dimension 2400 was a AGP.. :( because i got a really good card for AGP models..

[Coolbri1191]

nope... those pieces of crap at dell decided an agp port wasnt important >:|

[BergluX]

does a PCI-E fit? :P

[Coolbri1191]

lol nah man

[BergluX]

So its only PCI cards that work? :(

[14Juffrey]

mine is better radeonX13000 series

[Coolbri1191]

never heard of that :P i have a new system anyways :D

[frost4200]

dam i didnt know it could play that...yea i had a ATI X1300 i got to play fable and painkiller on it, everything at low setting though.....so is thier a difference bewteen them!...

[237red]

lol i have sam pc but cant find a video card for it since is only pci. can u tell me one video card for the dell dimension 2400 thx .

[Coolbri1191]

try lookin around for a HD2400 PCI graphics card. theyre pretty good for pci. i have one now instead of that X1300 and its way better

[stuperstoner]

i just bought a diamond hd 2400 256mb ddr2 pci graphics card and im hoping to get a boost from my graphics now which is intel 845gv integrated graphics

[Coolbri1191]

you will notice one HELL of a difference

[frost4200]

where did u find a 3.0 processor for your dell??...i got a dell 2400 or 2200 and 516 or 512 8600GS nividia geforce!!! and 1.128 gb of ram for it so, i jus need a stronger porcessor for it.....oh yea the dell is a 2.0 ghz

[Coolbri1191]

wha?? lol i got it off ebay. i got a new system goin anyways :P

[frost4200]

wha kinda system do u got now??

[Coolbri1191]

check out one of my other vids, building a computer or something.. i posted updates about it in the comments

[COCOstar08007]

cool

[Rocker267]

I can run crysis on my VisionTek ATI radeon X1300 PCI express

[Elhombremoco]

Hey I also use a Dell 2400 to play games LOL. But my graphics card is a VisionTek x1300 but its basicly the same and the Diamond one you have. Your CPU beats mine since is just a normal 2.5Ghz P4. At least the ram for it is cheap at ebay.

[Coolbri1191]

hell yeah man! i got a HD2400 now and i can play HL2 at 1680x1050 all high no aa, and get roughly the same results :D

[sundeepyup]

PCI-E cards are not backwards compatible with PCI card are they? PCI cards are hard to come by in the shops

[blacky777]

Sweet, anyone got a good link where I can buy this card for my machine at a decent price (UK buyer), if so PM me, much appreciated.

[Coolbri1191]

if you are in the UK, i HIGHLY suggest you buy the Sparkle 8500GT 256mb PCI card. its not sold in the US and it disappoints me that it isnt because that card will smoke the X1300 in a longshot.

[louisboy6]

ive been looking all day for where to get this and can't find it anywhere! Does anyone one know the cheapest place to get this?

[Coolbri1191]

do not bother getting this card. TRUST ME. if u plan on getting a pci graphics card, get the HD2400 256mb, OR if ur an ebay user, pay the extra $20-30 and get the 8500GT pci card by Sparkle.

[stupidguyaabbcc]

ok. i want to update my drivers for the visiontek x1300 pci card, i have 6.4 drivers, and want the new ones (8.6). If i un-install all the old ATI stuff with the uninstall utility, do i have to boot up back in safe mode or can i boot up regulary and just install the new drivers?

[Coolbri1191]

yeah just install right over it. no worries, the new drivers should completely erase it and youll be just fine.

[stupidguyaabbcc]

i dont have to use driver cleaner when i unistall the old drivers right?

[Coolbri1191]

no i dont think so. you should be ok man

[stupidguyaabbcc]

cool thx. last question: if something does go wrong, i can system restore to previous day and the old drivers would be working right?

[Coolbri1191]

yep

[Barbere252]

An ATI Radeon X1300 is pretty much the same as a Nvidia Geforce 6600 but i think i got pretty good framerate on a Nvidia Geforce 6200.

[Coolbri1191]

framerates are better on sooome games, but the x1300 is more feature rich(HDR etc) and has better image quality etc

[Barbere252]

Well if you buy a Nvidia Geforce 6600 or a Nvidia Geforce 6800 then it will be a big difference

[Coolbri1191]

im talking about pci cards not pci-e x16

[AsthmaSucks]

where can i get one because i only have pci slots on my pc?

[DJSKEE2121]

well some stores sell them like where i live walmart has it and i read some reveiwes that when u use this card wit 200GBs of hard drive that wit that kind of hard drive on css u can get 75-100 fps on d2

[1337DementedOne]

hmm...i was thinking about getting a x1550 radeon since i only have one PCI one PCI-E x1 slot but i found this PNY 8500gt. apparently the 8500 performs much better

[Coolbri1191]

yes, get the 8500gt.

[Dr1ftEastMovement]

Was it lagging?

[Zulfiqar32]

Whats the best PCI video card currently?

And i'm assuiming the ATI Radeon X1550 is a more powerful card than this one, right?

I also have only PCI slots, thats why i ask :)

[Coolbri1191]

yes, the x1550 is faster than this :P and the 2nd fastest PCI card out in USA is the HD2400 which can be found at bestbuy etc.. but the worlds FASTEST PCI card to date, is the 8500 which isnt sold in the USA.. :'[

[mrguyorama]

i have agp and pci-e but i have a slimline dell, so i had to get this card cause its like the best half hight card out there. also, i don't have the pro version, just the normal version

[Oskepirr]

The most powerfull pci.. I think its thee 9800gx2 with that card you can play every game without any trouble, It will Max crysis easy..

the only problem is the price, i dont know exackly but 600 us dollars right now I think .

[numb416]

thanx man i love i have no pci-e and no agp only pci and ill buy this graphic card

[flamingaxe791]

The x1300 is actually pretty good, it wasn't designed to play games but it does anyway and it does it quite well.

[warlockskz]

wow! never knew there was a pci version for this card, i've got the agp x1300/1500

[Protoking]

your voice isn't that bad

and anyway an x1300 is nothing to show off, I was running one before I upgraded to my HD2600XT.

[Coolbri1191]

i was showing off one of the best PCI cards of the time, thats something special dude... lol. if it was PCI-express then itd be nothing special. and btw this was just to show off what it could do.

[stupidguyaabbcc]

i almost have the same exact specs. u should turn off AA, not realy helping at 1024*768

[actrol]

I can't find this graphics card :(

[Coolbri1191]

thats ok, dont get the diamond brand anyways. if you really need a PCI graphics card, i recommend the HD 2400 because its more common in the USA than the 8500GT.

[DJSKEE2121]

yo hav u try CSS on it?

[dustin12388]

lol css is same engine as hl2

[Coolbri1191]

give me some time man.. im busy, but i will be working on a quick video for css.. nothing really special.

[paulbreor]

hey bro i have a dell dimensions im on right now that i game with

no pcie or agp

i have a nvidia card unlike your ati

check out my video about it

[DJSKEE2121]

if it can handle this 40-50 and probly 100 fps imagine in CSS cause HL2 is harder to get fps and imagine DUAL!!

[Coolbri1191]

i can actually even run this game everything high(minus AA and low shaders) at 1680x1050 resolution and get about 20-30fps

[MXhm91]

my computer:

Pentium 4 HT 660 3,6ghz socket 775LGA

2gb of ddr2 PC4300

250gbx2 WD2500KJ 7200rpm

550w CHIEFTEC GPS

ATi radeon 3850 256(should have gotten the 512)

upgrading everything except the video card in time... With P5E X38 mobo, 2gb of OCZ ATi crossfire, Q6600... another 3850 for crossfire and a raptor harddrive

[Coolbri1191]

^ jealous 0.0

[adammackenzie]

i had a x1300radeon in my e521 desktop- just upgraded it to a 512 geforce 8500gt ---works great!!!!!!!!!

[Coolbri1191]

pci correct? not pci express?

[Tallos1]

Sorry. I have ATI Radeon X 1600, no 1650 XD XD Just little mistake... but it's better...

[Tallos1]

Yes,.. I have ATI Radeon X 1650... Pretty better graphic... well... it's all about dollars...

[SA8TER21]

I used to have a setup like that. I couldnt stand it anymore and at the time my friend was selling his old custom built rig because he was building another. I got it all for 200 bucks. 2 Gbs of ram 2.5 ghz AMD Athilon, SLI 6800gt (getting a 8800gt :P), 550 watt power supply, and DVD burner. Not the best computer but for 200 bucks it was a steal.

Look around Im sure you could build a awesome computer for like 500-600 bucks.

[humantestdummy]

yo man i have a 2400 too, its not that that bad but i have a 2.6 celeron lol with 768 ram and a basic ati card lol can you change the processor?

[Coolbri1191]

the best one you can get is the Powerleap 3.2ghz Pentium 4(ebay might have it), but theres lots of things you need to do to make sure u get the right CPU and everything for the 2400.

[vaguedustin]

I have A 2400 Celeron 2.4 GHZ and 512 RAM 128 MB Vid ram it suks

[armean408]

can u please make a video playing counter strike and counterstrike source? make it LOONG video please. i wanna noe wat to buy and i play cal in those games so i wanna noe wats best...

[armean408]

im getting ATI RADEON HD 2400 XT 256MB(sry for caps its copy n pasted off site) is that better than this? this graphic card is lagging is this when its recording?

[Coolbri1191]

the 2400 XT is better, unless you have a X1300 XT or something before, but my card is PCI, and urs is PCI-e, so right there you're guaranteed more performance

[daryth]

I have about 10 of these cards. Very interesting. I'm going to have to grab a couple 3ghz HT systems and see what I can do.

[Coolbri1191]

in the vid i was running a Pentium 4 2.2GHz, soon after that vid, i upgraded to the Pentium 4 3.06GHz HT and added more RAM.

[coolkidcoolkid1234]

yo that sum good graphics card lol it really is good kuz im got a pci express slot in my computer so im planin on buying a good 512 mb card from nvidia im not a gamer but like playing games so im geussing if that is pci then pci express probably be even better great vid by the way hope u good luck on any other upgrades

[mrguyorama]

wow. i just got that same card and halo 2 gets a pretty good performance. but not as good as that!

[Coolbri1191]

soo...you have the PCI x1300 running halo 2?! wow dude im jealous lol

[mrguyorama]

it only does low graphics with 2 sample anti alaising(havent tried higher graphics yet though:))runs great. you can run halo 2 on xp. search for it on youtube and there are some videos about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!but i have vista.

[Coolbri1191]

thats still badass lol. what res you run it at?

[mrguyorama]

1024*768, the same as my screen size. i don't fully understand why u should change the resolution. tis fun online.

[prd2bepersian]

How much is your power supply?By the way Im planning on buying an x1550 and ive never seen the gfx card of x1550 working on a PCI pc.I have dell dimension 3000 pc and it really needs an upgrade from video.ur card looks decent and has good gfx>im stuck with pci till i buy my new xps 420 pc.anyways if u no,which card,x1550 or x1300?

[Coolbri1191]

if you're going to do extreme gfx-type games, then get the x1550, if not, then go with the x1300..

[nirvanakcteen]

actually i heard that they are making an X1800 PCI version so i would look into that if your in need of an upgrade

[Coolbri1191]

holy shit! dude if youre right, then...you think itd be better than the Sparkle 8500GT for PCI? cuz its out, but not for the US.. :\

[nirvanakcteen]

the 8500 would do really well with games like HL2 and stuff, im running a radeon HD 3850 and its powering through everything, plays crysis on high

[Coolbri1191]

wow nice dude!! so is the 8500 better than the x1800? i havent found anything on the x1800 pci version yet..

[nirvanakcteen]

if they bandwith goes right, the 8500 would be better

[forsakenfallenangel]

is radeon hd 2400 xt 256mb ddr3 better then x1300? i am getting a new pc wich is a big step up from my 7year old pc, got 2.0 pent 4 in old one, new one is dual core 2.4ghz 1.24 gigs of ram on old and 2gb ddr2 on new pc, radeon hd 2400 xt, hope i can run this ^_^ sorry if its a bad question. hope i can run cod4

[Coolbri1191]

dude, i think you'll be ok. and yes, the hd2400 xt is WAAAAY better than the x1300 in a long shot. ddr3 really helps it too. you can probably run cod4 on low-med settings at a medium sized resolution. not a bad question at all.

[mikeccuk2006]

i wish they make Sli/crossfire on a normal pci soon

[Coolbri1191]

lol...man, would that be nice.. and for some reason, the Diamond X1550 PCI card says it has crossfire support o.O

[mikeccuk2006]

ofcource it could do crossfire, its just the end cables, not like sli ;0. Surely you could make it crosfire in 4 with pci's LOL

[Coolbri1191]

fucking owning in fps, holy shit...lol, playing this game at 2560x1600 everything high, and eh, about 150-200fps, never lower than 140...wow lol wouldnt that be nice?

[mikeccuk2006]

you would probably need a 800watt power supply for a quad- Xfire pci setup o.0

[connortimoti]

pci cards cost more then agp/pcie??

[Coolbri1191]

unfortunately yes...pretty gay isnt it?
