U just got a barebones help

[DemiGhost]

ok well i just got a hott ass barebone system from a ocmputer show, i got a amd athlon 64 2800+, k8n-e nforce 3 mother board, case, 450w power supply. It also came with a radeon 9200 128mb video card, but i already have a gforce4 4200 ti 128mb video card. I just wanted to know wich one is better? I think the gf4 is but not sure. Also i was thinking of buying a radeon 9800 pro 128MB and turn it into a xt. is that a god idea or wait and buy a dff one.

whoops I read that wrong, though you said 9800 came with the comp :-/

4200 is better than the 9200

9800 > 4200 > 9200

it isn't the 9200se is it? I have heard naught but horrible things about that one.

i also have a future power case, does ne1 know a site for them? i didnt get a book or nothing ad i dunno howto put rest of stuff in comp lol me+newb

Your best bet is to try both. Put on in, run 3DMark2004, put in other one, run 3DMark2004, compare benchmarks.

ok thanx, and also i will be getting the 9800pro almost for sure, but i head that the radeons dont go well with a nforce 3 mother board, i know i got a good mobo its a asus k8n-e deluxe went to site. everything looked ok, but can ne1 comfirm this myth of radeon in a nvidia based bored?

That's garbage...My friend is running a Radeon 9000 just peachy on his nForce2.
