My g-force 4 4200 ti 64 mb died today and i don't
know why . comp would not boot at all so I checked to
see if all the fans were running and they were. I then
took the card out an reseated it . started up the comp
and got error codes still would not give me any video .
So I took it out and installed a nvidia vanta 16 mb card
I have as a backup comp booted right up. So I tryed on more time on the 4200 no luck . So I argued with the wife for about a half hour on the need for a new video
card. She finally give in so I headed to bestbuy check
book in hand and found a g-force 4 ti 4600 128 ddr
asylum for $200.00 the tech there told me the only
card there that would be better would be the fx 5900
ultra for $500.00 . So I came home with the 4600
Installed it and it great somewhat faster then my 4200
but not alot . Also I can't seem to get tv out to work
again Ill have to play around with that .So I hope I
made the right decision. What do you guys think would
the fx 5600 been a good choice I heard it has issues.

I was considering a ti4600 for approx £100 ! but decided the extra £20 for the GF FX5600 was money well spent, considering the Direct X9 support......

One thing for sure, once games that demand full DX9 compliance are released, both the FX and ti will ,no doubt, be obsolete anyway! 
We'll probably be on DX15 by then..

And so the merry go round of GFX cards will continue to turn!

dammit! 

the ti4200 is a very under-rated card capable of been tweaked faster than the ti4400. i bought the XFX ti4200 64mb card and heres a quote from the review that made me buy it

"The XFX GeForce4 Ti4200 is powered by Nvidia's NV25 GPU, much like its big brothers Ti4400 and Ti4600. The essential differences between the models are the features, clockspeeds, and most importantly price as many Ti4200s are overlocking to Ti4600 speeds. Because of this overclocking potential will either put this card in a league of its own, or it will make this card crash and burn."

"While the results really speak for themselves, it's fairly astounding that even with minimal overclocking using stock cooling, the GeForce 4 Ti4200 can out-perform a GeForce 4 Ti4400 by a moderate margin. With added RAM-sinks and perhaps some Artic Silver III, the possibilities for overclocking are tremendous."

id say its fairly close to the ti4600 in performance after been tweaked.

its a shame it died...
