Radeon 9600XT 128MB

If anyne has this card could you please help me because my fps are terrible and I can't figure out why. I have tried to take off all the graphics and special stuff in the game but it is still incredibly slow. Thanks in advanced.

does it require a molex connector to connect it to the psu if so is your psu powerfull enough I have just put a fx 5900xt in mine and i had to upgrade my psu to a good quality 500watt unit./ in your ati
settings turn vertical sync of and antialising/ of then try it if this
solves the problem hem gradually turn the setting back on(except vertical sync this really does kill frame rates)

I bought the 5700 geforce at first but it required to much power and i only have a 200 watt power supply and my comp kept shutting down. Than I bought the radeon 9600 xt and it does not require power hooked up straight into the card and it has not made my computer shut down on me. I think that I might need a better power supply unit. If you think so what kind should i get and how many watts?

Depends what else do you have in your machine how many hard drives/cd dvd drives cooling fans/ fancy mod lights/
I would say get a minimum 400watt psu but make sure its a good quality one
like enermax /you can get cheap one's but they dont always
deliver the power needed
