The HD 2400 Pro is the lowest end of the ATI current graphic cards line up. We have looked at the NVIDIA’s 8500 GT and ATI HD 2600 XT and today we will take a look at the HD 2400 Pro from VisionTek. Both NVIDIA and ATI have cards that will satisfy the need of the budget buyer. Many users are looking for a simple graphic card that does not cost a leg or an arm and offers a better performance than the integrated graphic that is included with their system. Join us as we take a look at VisionTek’s HD 2400 Pro, the budget card from ATI current line up, and see if this card would be an worthy card to upgrade to from your integrated graphics.ĭespite the fact that we all wish to own the best graphic cards on the market, the reality is that not all of us can afford or need the top of the line 8800 GTX or HD 2900XT. Sometimes a budget graphic card can serve the baic needs and maybe even more provided that you don’t use the card for any gaming purpose. Use older version of Catalyst or Omega drivers - lots of people in the various forums saying that this was the only thing that worked although performance seems to be an issue.Not everyone needs a high performance graphic card. Stable and games are now loading fine - not sure about performance tho' - the hassle I had I'm just grateful it works
use VisionTek drivers for their version of the AGP card- this one works for me. Then install the 8.3 drivers + patch from the Sapphire site completely clean install of all things ATI and Catalyst (some good instructions and links to tools elsewhere on this site). There is NO AGP Driver on the ATI website - the 24 drivers both say (PCIe) after them, none of the other cards have this in their description. Unfortunately, I didn't check them out until after I installed it and found that neither the drivers on the CD or the latest catalyst drivers would load !!!ĪTI appear not to be supporting the AGP variants that Sapphire and others are selling.
If I had read all the support forums first - I NEVER WOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT !!
I rushed ahead and bought a Sapphire HD 2600 XT when my old NV6800 fried itself (tip - remember to suck the dust out of the heatsink once in a while!)
