Such a shame...

My computer's videocard exploded. :( I have two choices of videocards; which do you think would run this game better? I'm thinking possibly the 6200, but I'm not sure...

GeForce 6200TC

Radeon X300SE

The 6200TC is the better card. The card you choose has PCI Express, make sure that you have such a port.

I used to have the X300SE and let me tell you, it is not a very good card. If I were you, I would go with something else.

Like this:

X800 GT

6600 XT, with a bonus Age of Empires III

6600

I'm not really sure what your price range is or how much you're willing to spend but any of those cards will give you great performance - More than enough to enjoy SHIII to the fullest extent. If those cards are the only ones that you can choose from, I say go with the 6200 from ASUS. :up:

I have a second computer with a 7800GT, but it is incompatible with StarForce so I can't play on it. I can't use the 7800GT or any of the cards you suggested because this box I'm using requires low-profile cards. So, these are my only choices unfortunately. Thanks for the information anyways! I think I'll choose the 6200TC. :)

Another possibility. This is the exact same card as I had before, but will it be as powerful as the 6200TC?

By the way, I just noticed I'm not supposed to have a IXB in Sept 1939. :hmm:

Edit: WOOT, my X600 SE works again! No more responses needed, thanks for the assistance. U-278 and Fritz Getter are finally off to sea! Wish me luck! ;)

Well they are not available in the stock game but were available in 1939

Little off track for the graphics card post i know but
