Upgraded Video card is slow :/

Warnipple · 02-11-2008, 05:06 PM

Hey guys.

I just upgraded my video card from a RADEON 9800 PRO 128 megs to a RADEON 9250 256 megs. I've seen slower and decreased performance.

The 9800 one used AGP with a power cord and the new one uses PCI (not PCIe)

Also how much would a motherboard cost if it had PCIe

The Radeon 9250 is alot slower than the 9800PRO - Plus AGP is faster than PCI.

A PCI-E motherboard would only cost around $50-60.
