128MB of memory on your graphics card means more performance than 64MB :wink:

More memory = more performance

When you say latest drivers, let's just make sure that's indeed what you have:

1) Right-Click on your desktop, and choose Properties

2) Select the Settings tab, at the bottom of the window select Advanced, next select the tab that says your video card, at the bottom where it says Driver Version Information look at the far right column: Version ... what number do you see there?

That's your video card driver version, tell us what it is.

It may be the Operating System, old games tend to run worse on newer operating systems.

Hey on my PNY Verto box it says that the 64mb GF4 Ti4200 is faster than the 128mb cause its like 500mhz memory of something like that... I love that card, i just got it yesturday from Circuit City for 169.00

Hry Guys! I just wanna say that i also bought the Ti4200 64mb last week sunday, 22nd. I also had the same thing when it gave me 128mb instead of the 64mn. The reason for that is because the maximum video memory on that card is 128. The Ti4200 is the best upgrade card I have even gotten. It has built in fan and heat sync. Thats mad good! I was play Star Wars Jedi Night II and i was getting atleast 70 frames per second on 1024by768 resolution. Thats awesome! If anyone needs help with Anything, dont hesitate to ask :wink:

On the box they're comparing it (64MB DDR) to a card with 128MB ofSDRAM I've got the same card and I like it too. :lol:

Its the game, I used to play Urban Terror, I have a 1.51ghz AMD system with a Ti 4600, and 512mb PC2700 DDR and got terrible FPS, has nothing to do with the OS (atleast to my knowledge), UrT 2.6 is just a bad poorly coded game.

I get about 200 fps at 1024x768 in Quake 3 Arena
and about 80-90 fps in Urban Terror at the same res, and at that res it looks aweful.

It wouldnt hurt upgrading that CPU to a 1.3Ghz+ and upgrade to 512mb ram, you'll all the power you can get if you wanna play the latest greatest games.

If you have some extra money lying around I suggest upgrading your motherboard to a AMD mobo with DDR, and get a 1800+ or better processor.
