Video Card Question...

Doubt it. I'm sure upgrading your card in general will see some improvements, but all things the same, more memory won't really help that much. Video memory is mainly(could say exclusively) used for textures.

I know Vista uses video hardware for stuff, but I don't know how much that'd be a factor(my guess is very little).

but... a card with only 256 is OLD. getting a new/current 1 gig card would be a great improvement.

256 is old. But the question was, would it improve 2d apps? The answer to that question is no there would be 0 improvement.

you must always see the real question. It wasnt really will it improve, it was to validate if he should buy a new toy, and the answer to that is always yes.

also, should have bought an ati 4870 or an nvidia 260/280 over the 9800 with a 24"

I just got the ATI HD3850 and it runs pretty nice. Not sure on the Nvidia cards as I have always used ATI. Would have gotten a nicer card but that it the limits for an old agp set-up.

I will own your ass in COD5

Which one is that?

I have COD 4 and COD world at War which is awesome.

      Yup. Hopefully  Brandon adds some muscle this off-season but he'll probably be resting his shoulder for a while so I doubt it. Miles should probably be replaced but I don't think we find a better 4th option to be honest. So is it better to add depth along side williams and Coby or try to upgrade the 4/5 . I think adding depth will probably be more beneficial than trying to upgrade starters and bank on Brandon and Kons continuing development. I really don't think they are going to make the playoffs unfortunately. I think the big hole they put themselves in has exhausted them. They've been amazing since January 1 but I think it's come at a cost and their legs are gone.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      The issue is the predictability of it all in a Bryce Young led offense. In 4th down attempts the Jets were at 41 and we were at 40. And we were 4th in conversation %. We were 25th in the league in 3rd down conversion because we faced so many 3rd and longs in part due to playcalling on 1st and 2nd down but more largely due to the limitations that cannot be overcome.  And people want us to spend another 1st rounder on WR as if it is going to magically give Bryce physical talent he will never possess. It's a shame we cut off our own nose just to put ourselves in this frustrating predicament.
