nvidia *spit* *spit* - I hate nvidia :P - my 9800 overheated (fan got cloged) and i couldnt wait 5 days for a new card, so i bought a GeForce 6200, 512mb BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER, I couldnt even play GW in low settings, 22 fps on most games, took it back to the shop, ordered a radeon x1600 - now, everything up as high as it can go, full AA, 1600x1200 - no problems :P

So, after installing the new card, did you reload the latest DirectX and video card drivers? Just covering the basics... I have a 6800Ultra and run at max settings no prob...

actually, to be honest, I was ill advised by the shop, as I said 'I had a 9800, I want something thats ATLEAST that level' and they reccomended the 6200..
but I know people on a 5800 who get better performance so :\
its ok, im on the x1600 now so i dont care :P

The X1600 isn't a "bad" card...just not one I would have got. I have the X800XL and it is better then that card in my opinion. The X1600 can do the Shader Graphics 3 where my X800XL only will do Shader 2 after that the X1600 is actually slower. The X1600 only has 12 pipelines too.
I am not flaming your card...it is just you are better off with a higher end card from the previous tech then a low to mid range on the newer tech.
I always buy the high end cards that are going to be obsolete soon and get them at a decent price.
