I'm helping a friend upgrade his computer so he can play FFXI. Right now he's got an HP Pavilion 9720, P4 1.4GHz, 128 MB RDRAM (yes, someone should shoot Rambus) and his video card, an nVidia TNT, obviously fails with a TnL error.
The memory's going to cost him quite a bit because it's that sick RDRAM but he can't spend the money for a new box.
So now I'm trying to hunt down a decent video card around $90, and though I can get a Geforce FX 5200 for $70, 1) the sale ends today and 2) you people as a group hate it like someone begging for gil at the AH. The Geforce4 4200 seems to be the popular choice, and I'm coming up with one at Pricewatch for $91, an "Inno3D GeForce4 TI4200" (http://www.amamax.com/intogeti4212.html). So, good buy, or is there something better around $90 that can run FFXI?
