Before anyone yells about the below mentioned PC not being a gaming PC please remember that I know that but I need constructive input anyway.
System:
IBM P4 2.4GHz
256MB RAM (soon to be 512)
PCI slots only
Question:
Will either the 5200 or the 6200 play Tiger Woods 2007 well? If the answer is yes then is there a big difference between the 2 cards? Keep in mind that they are both connected to a PCI expansion slot.
I agree with the memory upgrade to 512. He normally doesn't play games but some friends of his from where he used to live talked him into d/l TW2007 so they could all play online but his old system was way too slow. He got the new system for $105, still under the original IBM warranty, so he couldn't pass it up. How much slower is the 5200 compared to the 6200 considering that they are both slaved into a slow PCI slot?
I am looking for some advice concerning a friend of mine's PC. He has a 2.4 P4 IBM PC with 256MB ram. He is looking to play Tiger Woods 2007 but the computer only has PCI slots. The min/rec specs for TW2007 is 16MB/128MB graphics. Does anyone have an opinion if the GF 5200, 6200(256), or ATI 9250 have enough PCI horsepower to play this game well?
