looks good, the big diff's i see are the price, and the diamond one has DVI if you have an lcd with dvi. i guess diamond is coming back. that company used to make it's own graphics cards but they went away for a while

I ended up ordering the Diamond w/ the Radeon 9250 256mb. I'll let you know how it turns out

8-10-05-- I recieved and installed my new vid card today. It's SOOOOOO much better than what I had. Going from 64mb to 256mb made a ton of difference. Everything is so much brighter and clearer now, it's unreal. Before i had to get really close to someone before i would see them if they weren't moving. Now, I can pick them out from alot farther away. No more waiting to spot some movement before i can tell it's a person. It's incredible, even if it is just a cheap PCI card! Thanks for all the help and input, I appreciate it greatly!

I went form 32 MB to 256 MB when I made the jump. Incredible, isn't it? It's like LASIK surgery for your PC. Cheesy

Congrats on improving your "vision."

LOL

Guess it's time to upgrade as well, looks like this will cure the same problems I have (well some) but it would help to see people a little further then I do now. Only if they made one with backwards vision for those sneaky bashers would I truely be happy Roll Eyes

keep in mind also, with a better vid card, you can crank up the resolution in the game options(some) and see a LOT better too, i put mine on 1280x1024 and it was great!!!but i couldn't keep it that way, the lag was too bad, but when i upgrade soon from my geforce 5200, i'm gonna try it again.
