Firstly, is that any good?

Y'see, I have no idea when it comes to graphics card's.

Could you recommend any?
For instance, do any of you have a high quality GFX cards that you'd recommend?
Danke.

www.microdirect.co.uk its there on the main page at the moment as its on sale.

Gainward GF FX 5600 256MB FX PowerPack Ultra/780 XP Professional (Dual DVI) 4.0ns DDR (Dual DVI) 4.0ns DDR 8X AGP VIVO DVI £123.38

Maybe thats not a proper FX5600 Ultra, it just had Ultra in its name.

Oh.

I've deleted it.

Damn.
Sorreh.

I'll try and find it, or I'll get Memo to send me it again.

I've got a program (regards to Memo) that allows you to create a random product key and set it even once you've installed everything etc.

I've got your addy, I'll send it as soon as I find out where the hell I've stored it.

Ah, there are always solutions to issues my friend =)

Eclipse...haven't dealt with them for a few years now, only thing I could say is be wary of their support if you need to send something back - much like ebuyer, cheap prices, no service. Friend of mine got an email sent to him about a mouse he returned, which included a bit added by someone inside the company when they sent it to someone else..Some unpleasant comments. There was some legal action against them too a while ago, iirc. Still I ordered a few times without too much fuss, just be wary.

Their site works fine for me - I ordered £255 worth of upgrades last week.

That was on a comp running win98 SE. On win XP, I can't install Java because I haven't installed service pack one. I haven't installed service back one due to, er, product key 'issues' :)

I've found a site that sells it.

www.eclipse-computers.com

It was mentioned earlier, I think, but the thing is... it's impossible to order.

The site uses Java as it's shopping cart.
And it's fooked.

So, I've sent them an e-mail.

If it can't be sorted, I've got another site. 5 quid cheaper though.

But its finding a 9500 Pro. I would agree that the 9500 Pro is better but I havent found many sites that stock it. But if you can find one then and its cheaper or the same as a 9600 Pro then yes get the 9500 Pro instead.

I really wouldn't bother with the ATi Radeon 9600 Pro, especially as the 9500 Pro out does it on all benchmark tests!
