Author Topic: How well would an ATI Radeon HD 5750 work with shadows, along with other things? (Read 1092 times)

I've been looking around, and if any of you have known by looking in the help topic, I'm stuck with a built in Radeon HD 4200.

I've actually been making a mods for someone for a bit of cash, still looking for other ways to get more.
But that doesn't matter at the moment.

I'm wondering if this $40 card I found that is compatible with my PC would work well with shadows. I've heard it will do good with stuff, but I want the community's opinion. Since I cannot afford an expensive card at all.

Also, I doubt this but,
is this better? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ATI-Radeon-HD-4650-1GB-DDR2-PCI-E-LOW-PROFILE-DVI-HDMI-/140824765212?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item20c9cf631c

The 5750 is better. Make sure you have a PCI x16 slot and a power supply with a 6-pin(or whatever) connector.

I've got a radeon hd 5850, runs great, mostly 37.5 fps on high though.

Too expensive for me.

Yes, I won't be able to get anything over $100.

Hell, I'm probably on a budget at $50.

take a look at the other Radeon HD 6000 series GPU cards, they seem good overall.

Yeah, the 6570 works with no lag on maximum shaders.

Why thef forget are you using eBay, use known sites like Newegg.com

You can get an AMD 6670 for $60, around $40 after rebate and it hasn't been opened. You can also look at tr 6570 but the 667 is better
