My amd 2400+ was not going to set any speed records so I settled for a middle of the road graphics card.

Now here I am playing games some 4 years later with no problems at all.

I don't know about what developers say when it comes to graphics cards.

What I do know, however, is My ATI card has ran every game I have bought in the last 4 years without a problem.

Of course that might have something to do with a quality power supply and enough fan cooling to turn my rig into a hover craft.

I have same config, mmm processor is AMD Athlon XP 2200+ and has no complains at all. But I think to buy new one (computer).
