July 14, 200322 yr I am guessing if the install disk comes with directX it would be 8 or maybe 9.Again that is just a guess. I would download the latest version though if it were me.....but I am not the "tech god" type though.
July 14, 200322 yr A TI 4800 is a AGP 8X version of a TI4200. That is all. Not a big deal. the 4x and 8x agp's are both direct x 8 capable. I would still go with my choice for now Obsession. The 128mb FX5600 at NewEgg with 3.6ns memory Prolink I believe. It has Samsung memory which is Very good. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?catalog=48&DEPA=0&submit=property&mfrcode=0&propertycode=&propertycodevalue=4637,3668 Prolink Geforce FX 5600 128MB, 8X AGP, VIVO+DVI+VGA+TV Model VIO-5600-128AD - RETAIL Specifications: Chipset: nVidia GeForce FX 5600 Memory: 128MB -3.6ns DDRAM BUS: 8X AGP Max display resolution 2048x1536x32bpp at 85Hz Ports: VGA, DVI, TV-Out, Video In/Out Retail Box (see pictures) Model#: MVGA-NVG31AL Special Free FedEx Saver Shipping - Product Link -See It!

July 15, 200322 yr or u can try and the the geforce 5600 256 like i am with the ddr 2 ram. its like 230 dollars.
July 15, 200322 yr It is a fine choice but right now 256mb of memory is overkill unless you run high resolution with AA cranked up and Ansiotropic on all the way.The money is better spent on a faster processro, memory and HD.My opinion.
July 15, 200322 yr I'm not sure but I think ti4800 can run Direct X 9 Also, theres a cheap one by Chaintech www.newegg.com
July 15, 200322 yr im 110% positive it can run diret x9 i have a ti4400 which runs directx 9my friend has a 4200 which runs directx 9 and my dad has a 4800 with directx 9
July 15, 200322 yr No the GF4's are only Direct X 8 compatible. It is the chipset limitating it. Gainward GeForce4 PowerPack!
