Is G-Forcs 5500 good enough for SA?

No, you need a 6 series graphics card for game console performance...I would recomend the 6600 or if your comp has the right stuff the 6800. If none of those work try the 6200.

That is not true. I have a GeForce FX 5500. It gives better than Xbox performance at 1280x1024 resolution with medium Visual FX details. Rockstar reccommends GeForce6 series, if you want Anti-Aliasing and such, which really isn't needed at 1280x1024. Also, for GeForce 6 series you need PCI-express or AGP, being that the fastest standard-PCI card (besides the FX 5600) is the FX 5500.

I have an agp slot, and a p4 3.2 w/ 1024 pc3200. I don't want to spend a lot, just get a card that will play with out the choppyness. I can live without the higest res, and all the effects turned up, I just want the cheapest card possible. my ati 9200 plays real slow when a lot of stuff is going on

If you have 1gb of ram and a P4 3.2 GHz, and you have a free AGP slot, get the following card:

It's a great GeForce AGP card, with ample video memory and a fsat core clock. Pretty cheap too.

With that setup, you'll have the smoothest San Andreas gameplay ever.

I think that every video card with 128MB ram is good enough for maximum details, anti-aliasing, 1024x768 or 1280x1024 resolution and very high FX quality. SA just always makes me cry at it's graphics, even I've put into tons of mods to make the models and textures quality much better. There just isn't a mod to upgrade the game's engine! :cry:

Just one thing. That GeForce 6600 OC is better than the GT version?
