I have $70 and I want to buy a Graphic Card.

[Terranigma]

Basically, I'm only interested in getting the best results for my N64 Emu and right now I have a extra bit of cash to spend. Can someone tell me the names of the cards that works best again? I'm not interested in high end PC gaming, just a card to make N64 emu better. And of course something that'll work nicely for the hi-res texture hacks.

At least, GeForce 6200. You'll find it around $50~$60, if not cheaper. I'm looking for one too.

Find a refurbished GF4 Titanium 4200 to 4800 or some Radeon 9000 ,9100 ,9500 etc and anyone will kick a$$ of any new card that costs 70 $

i have a pci geforce fx 5200 asylum 256 mb card in my rig
it works nicely with open-glide
i give it a 7 out of 10

Are ATi cards better for N64 emu, or Nvidia cards?

 

[Clements]

I have both and neither is better in N64 emulation. Both work perfectly with all the current GPU plugins. Buy based on the performance/featureset of the card and not if it's ATi/NVIDIA etc.

ATI Radeon 9550 128MB (NOT "SE"!) i think it´s the best choice

Oh ok, but that brings up another problem, I don't know the performance/featuresets are for any of the cards. Anyway, thanks for all the replies, I'll go look around and see if I can get my hands on any of those cards.

Just check some benchmarks and you will see usually what's best (or at least you can find out what card is best for your game)

I live by my GeForce FX 5700 Ultra I bought on eBay for $130 (should cost less now) a year ago. It is F-A-S-T!

 

[Doomulation]

It's ... umm, bad? The whole Geforce FX line was poor. The Geforce 6XXX series is good.

For 70 you should be able to find a radeon 9700 pro off ebay.

Make a decent offer and you can have my 3DFX V5! :naughty: Nothing beats 3DFX when it comes to N64 emulation.
