Default 9600 128 onsale Staples $70 AR, should I buy??

I'm limping along now with a Radeon 7200,

and I'm no expert with video cards.

Is this card a worthwhile upgrade at this price?

Looks like a non-pro, whatever that implies.

Please help!!

I would definately consider it if you play any games or want better image
quality. The 7200 I once owned had terribly fuzzy output.

That is a great price. The best at http://Pricewatch.com is $87 +S&H for
9600SE, although there was a (supposedly) non-SE for same price. My wife has
7200 and it works great for everything except newest 3D games.

Make sure it aint an SE ( slower edition/stupid edition/slowbro
edtion...however you name it ) but really a 9600 Non Pro. It's a good
card, fast in nowadays games and much potential for future games.

Oh yes, and it supports DX9.. if that is your gig.

the 9600 NP is very much faster as the 7200 :-) The 9600SE..well it's
faster..but not worth the bucks you have to pay for it!
