MK, are you sure it's not a 128mb card? I've never heard of a 9700 that was just 64mb. If it's really a 64mb, then you'll have problems with Doom 3.
Garlic, the FX 5200 is the equivalent of the Radeon 9600, which is what I almost bought. It SHOULD be able to handle Doom 3.

64MB DDR ATI's MOBILITY? RADEON? 9700 AGP 8X Graphics
That's what it is....

HAHAHAAH! Tapion u for real?
About which part? All of it is true. I got a dell, I will be getting a dell, and I did crash a dell and the CPU is in my old room (I live in the basement now, i was shunned) and my dad's company, ScImage really does that but they had permission >_> It's because some faggets took their idea before Sci did....

My only concern is the 64mb instead of the 128mb. I'm not sure how that will affect your graphics, but at least it's a 9700. =\

id dont think it maters if they call it 101320294i10294 berjillion, 64mb is 64mb

just checked the minimum requirements: An nVidia GeForce 3 graphics card or better; or an ATI Technologies 8500 or better.
and recommended:
Radeon 9700 or an nVidia GeForce4 ti4600 graphics card or better.
So I just make the recommended level, I think I should be fine.
w00t! - Broli - 08-11-2004
Yeah, I had the GeForce 3 Ti.
My game crashed when I tried to play on Ultra High Quality, and then again on High Quality. *goes to try it on Medium*
Must be some hardcore graphics if even the 9800 can't handle past Medium.

It won't work! >=O
This sucks. =(

You bought a 9800 se didn't you...
w00t! - Tobias - 08-11-2004
Just plop it in there and make sure you didnt knck any wires out like I did when I upgraded min awhile back. :/ Or get someone who knows what they're doing.

I got a 9800 Pro.
Anywho, I got Doom 3 to work. It kept crashing no matter what video quality I had it set on. Then, I disabled Surround Sound, and it mysteriously began working. I guess Surround Sound was causing drivers to clash or something.

A 9800 Pro is like way above anything in the GeForce Line, you should be able to play doom in pretty damn high quality =o Unless your card is fu><ord.

My game keeps crashing. So, I looked up the current bugs for Doom 3. There is only one. It reads:
Bug that causes frequent crashes with use of the ATI 9800 128 mbs.
-_-
It just had to be the 9800. Couldn't have been the 9600, oh no, gotta screw over Broli.
w00t! - Old Dave - 08-11-2004
don't worry they will make a patch that will correct the problem in time o.O
But your still able to play right..?

You know, the guy at Comp Usa told me to buy that instead of the 9800.
>.>
Either way, I just downloaded a new Catalyst driver for the 9800, and the problem seems to be fixed. w00t.
The only problem was that when I installed the new Catalyst driver, it said, "Warning! This is not compatible with Windows XP and may cause the operating system to crash in the near future, blah blah"
Hm...

9600 XT is like a super amped up 9600 but it's only about as good as a 9800 Non-Pro. ALthough he probably recommended it because it was cheap, and very stable.
