    4200 or 4400

    As of now, I'm $50 short of getting a GeForce 4 Ti 4200. How ever yesterday, when I was mowing the grass, I thought, hey wait a min...

    By the time I get $50 (which you can't get very fast if you mow lawns), The price of the 4200 will be about what I have now.

    So I thought, Sweet! I didn't have to mow the lawn anymore.

    Then today I had another thought, but wait if I can get that extra $50, I might be able to get the 4400 since the price would go down as well...

    What do you guys think? 4200 or 4400?

    Since the release of the 9700 has already started affecting Ti4xxx pricing, I say right now the best bang for the buck is the 4400. The MSI model can be purchased from Newegg for for $186.

    WOW, that's news to me...

    Problem is, I have had previous problems ordering on-line...


    Anywhoo, this 4200 is $160 at my local comp store (that's the one I was originally getting) the 4400 is $229


    BTW is a GeForce 4 the best choice for a video card for a Pentium 4, regardless of clock speed?

    The GF4 Ti 4400 may not be around for much longer.


    Newegg is a great place to buy from.

    The Radeon 8500 is also a good choice.
