Hello all,

1. My motherboard is MSI P6NGM, and I will like

to know what type of video card is compatible with this

motherboard.

2. Which video card is good for games and has an economic

price?

Thanks in advance

This motherboard has a PCI-E slot, so anything is compatible.

I would buy a 9600GT right now. It is around $185-$195 and will play pretty much anything you throw at it.

Yeah it depends on your budget.

A 8800 Is more expensive than a 9600...and they are about equal in performance so the 9600 for probably about 60-70 dollars less is your best bet. Its directx10 which means it can play crysis COD4 if you have windows vista.

If you decide on the 9600 get the BFG one with a 700 core clock

Its got a lifetime warranty so it will always be replaced if something goes wrong

Hi m8 it all really depends on what games you want to play coupled with how much you want to spend, the guys so far have all told you about some decent cards, but if your budget is $50 then its a whole new ball game
