Out of the two specified, get the GeForce.

Of course, saving your money and getting a 9800 or X700 might be a good idea ;)

He already has both.

Both cards are pretty poor performance, out of the two the nVidia is better but when I say better I mean still low quality.

What do you mean by the third option, save for a new one?

How much $ do you have now or would you spend on a new one and I get you the mode you want.

That is an old card... still i remember one of my mates having one when they first came out and he paid £30 quid for it, for the money you couldnt fall off really.

If you wanna upgrade but dont have much cash, ARIA are doing an nVidia GeForce FX5700LE 256MB AGP for about £50-60!! Just a thought! Got a few cheaper ones too, and some slightly dearer ones if you wanna go GF6....

On the subject of video cards... I prefer Nvidia tbh! Ive seen too many people have teething problems with ATI cards, the guy im in business with for a start off, he almost threw his PC out of his bedroom window he was that pissed off with it! But again, having never used ATI in any PC ive built for myself, and ive had no fewer than 7 ground up new builds since 1997, and various upgrades, im probably pretty biased! But Ive been using Nvidia since the days of the TNT cards and ive yet to have a problem with one in my PC or any ive built! The missus's PC and the missus's mams PC have both got Nvidia cards in and they are faultless!!!
