ATI Radeon 9250 (256 MB)

Pros: It has a nice overclock capability, and a lot can be achieved from that. It can also play old games like Halo and Starcraft decently, though FPS won't be high.

Cons: Without good hardware to match it, it is horrible. It isn't even worth $200 anymore; I got mine for less than $80. Overclocking is risky on old computers, and no new computers use this anymore.

Summary: Overclocking this, the only way to make it effective, will KILL your computer if it is old. You need VERY good hardware for this to reach even half its full potential, which most old computers don't have. Basically, it's a new graphics card for old computers, which makes no sense whatsoever. It is also high to achieve high FPS in games. I have 607 MB of RAM and an AMD Athlon 1500+, 1.34 GHz. I can get 30 FPS on Halo. If I overclock all three, I can get up to 80 on max quality (the 30 was on lowest quality), but the hardware, being old types, are easily degradable.
