|
|
okay so i have a computer that supports PCI video cards only, i really want to play spore and right now i have an ATI Radeon 9250, which has pixel shader 1.4, spore requires 2.0, so i need advice which video card, PCI ONLY, that isnt very expensive(under $100) and is compatible with spore, and where to buy. Thanks for all help and advice.

Buying a PCI video card is throwing money out the window. It will be more expensive than a comparable PCI-e card by a long shot, and will be severely bottlenecked.

yes but if you dont have 500-1000 bucks on a computer than buying a 70 dollar card is better

Well some people here are a bit more patient, or don't play that many games.
