    Default Asking for a friend..

    As the title says one of my friend is buying the Zotac 210 GT GPU and he owns a Asus P5N-MX Motherboard. Will it support that board?
    He has another query, is the 210 GT card better than 9800 GT?

    Really tired and lazy, so can't search by myself. So TDF friends, please help me

    TIA.

    GT 210 is a disgrace btw if you want to play games.

    9800 GT is like 7 or 8 times faster than GT 210.

    What's his budget for graphics card? Instead of GT-210 get the GT-520 for 300 bucks more. Atleast better than GT-210.
    For gaming these days the min. requirement is HD 5570 1GB DDR3. Will cost around 3.3k

    I've NO idea about his budget. He is kinda crazy. Had a 8800GT, don't know what he did with it. Then he moved to 9800GT for some days, and some gob must had informed him that 9 series too bad, damn, that's why he wanna move to GT 210 perhaps.
    He has C2Q 2.4 GHz btw.

    So I am telling him that yes, your MB will support that card but 9800GT is better, alright?

    Tell him that GT210 is equivalent to a substitute card for iGPU, not suitable for any kind of gaming.
