need a new graphics card

[Arcane]

i know there are some gamers out here and just needed some help deciding on a vid card...just to let you know, i won't buy anything other than nvidia and no, i'm not going to get the VisionTek Xtasy 128 DDR AGP card...$400 is out of my price range...well, any input would help...

A good place that I go to that has the lowest prices I have ever seen is:

www.pricewatch.com

It is a site that finds and gets special prices from several venders.  Real cheap they have GeForce4's, depending on the one you want, from $105-425

i've got an nvidia geforce 2 w/ 64mb  and i really like it alot. Its not the best but it does a great job.

thanks, cool site...not really worried about price...except for the $400 dollar card...just can't make up my mind between a few...i'm stuck on these video cards (http://www.bestbuy.com/compare.asp?tp=R&m=488&cat=521&scat=522&b=0&9=11099087&10=11099089&16=11091016&txtCount=17) and this one (http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2002391528)

I used to have a Visiontek GeForce3 64MB DDR when they first came out...BLEH...I didn't like it...I'm using a ATI Radeon 8500 64MB DDR right now and I've had no problems and it's a badass card.  I've been through quite a few cards, and this is the best by far...

how about a GeForce 2 MX400 with 64mb and tv out? I can get you a good price on that. (the brand is E-VGA i believe).

i thought about getting an ati card because they are cheaper but the driver support isn't that great...that's why i stick with nvidia...which model number was that nvidia card???

Arcane: How do you overclock a video card? &nbsp;I know what and how to overclock a processor, but not a video card. &nbsp;What does overclocking do to it?
