is it any good? worth £40 or should i look for a ti4200
Well i have the ATI made Radeon 9000Pro 64Mb Card, had it since the week it came out last year, cost me about £100; I would say it is really good value now. I can play Unreal Tournament 2003, Battlefield 1942, no probs, looks great. Not saying its going to last for ages, but it will probably do me fine for atleast another 6 months

It's an absolute stinker of a card. The ti4200 is a much better bet - so the Radeon 8500 and you can pick those up for 35 quid on ebay!
The 9000PRO is a good 10% slower than a Rad8500 but still faster than the Rad9100-9200. You are also slightly faster than GF-FX5200 too ... but as said 4200 is really the card, ideally with 128MB and cost roughly £70 ... unbeatable perf really.
if i sed it was the 128MB version with TV out and DVI/dsub connectors, woud it make it better? + for £40 i dont think i can go too far wrong with it can I?
Yeah 9000PRO 128MB is a great deal for £40 ... an extra £30 should get you a GF4TI4200 but then then that's always the way really, twice the price depending how you look on it. 9000PRO is a very good card, very good value for £40 ... where from?
