    Both of those are a bit dated and won't run todays games as well as say, a 6600GT or X1300....

    I've seen plain jane 6800s going for 200$ now-a-days might look around for one of them

    I'm looking at THIS and am wondering what's wrong with it :confused:

    It depends on what you use the PC for.

    If it's for complex 3D gaming, as posted earlier by Prophets21, it won't do well and there are much better choices. (the one posted by Pyrate is VERY cheap)

    If you don't, the ones you posted are more than adequate.

    As far as which one is better, that depends on price, bundled software and cables etc, and if you want TV out and VIVO etc.
