gashead86 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hi guys, I recentley purchased myself a copy of FM09 for my PC, after successfully installing the game (with the help of one or two files and patches!) I am finding the game very laggy and i am unable to use the 3d match engine. After a bit of research i have found the reason for this to be my graphics card. I have a Radeon 9200, as far as i am aware i shouldn't even really be able to play the game at all let alone in 3d!! So i have decided to update my gfx card to sort the problem. In all honesty i really don't use my PC very often, so i am looking for a gfx card that is good enough to allow me to play FM09 to its full potential, but i really dont need a top of the range & expensive card as i just wouldn't get my moneys worth. Thanks in advance guys! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkus Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 9200 is an AGP card? one of the x1650s here should do it (that's to say I know someone succussfully 3d-ing with a pci-e x1650) http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/6-/Search.html?searchstring=agp&searchtype=PCSH&searchsource=1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgreenio Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 think ebuyer have got quite a good sale on graphics cards at the mo. if not, try overclockers for one. and am pretty sure 9200 is an AGP card Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
