| Hi Can someone help I am upgrading my graphics card but short on cash so going for a cheap one. I have stumbled upon the ATI Gecube 2400 Pro HD 256mb card. Only it says "Certified For Windows Vista" Does this mean i can only use it with windows vista or does it mean it will work with windows vista and windows xp because i have windows xp on my system. ![]() Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks ![]() Last edited by Xeon : 13th Nov 2007 at 12:57 PM. |

| It means it will work for both but was designed for Vista with DX10 in mind (XP is DX9) And it is a very low end card, so a few questions 1.What is your budget? 2.And what will this card be used mainly for? As I am sure I can find a better card than the 2400 pro

| Hey thanx for the help by the way My budget is really short at only £75.00. Im going to use it mainly for gaming as i am going to use 2 of these cards together on my motherboard to use crossfire. My motherboard also has an overclocked system bus so i thought it could be faster. I also chose it because it most be AGP for the SLI technology to work with both cards. My motherboard is the Abit Fatal1ty FP IN9 Last edited by Xeon : 13th Nov 2007 at 01:47 PM. |

You want a PCI-E card(the ATI Gecube 2400 Pro) to use crossfire with AGP on your SLi motherboard? You are very confused. This is your motherboard It is PCI-E You need 2 nVidia PCI-E graphics cards for that motherboard to go Sli. Something you aint gonna be doing for £75. Just buy the best single card you can for £75 and stop this crazy talk ![]() My System: Krlll

| Yeah Im so confused im still learning though.I thought that graphics card slots were AGP but you can get some for PCI-E I thought you had to use AGP graphics cards in an AGP slot for the SLi to work lol Sometimes I just dont think ![]() Thanks for the diagram of the motherboard by the way ![]() |
