| Sorry if this is the wrong area to post but i recently found one of my old computers with a p4i65gv motherboard i also found an ati radeon 9500 pro but when i put in in boot up windows xp get the latest drivers it gets really choppy and cant play games but works in a different computer so is there a problem with the motherboard or something else |

| You will need to post the rest of the system specs. The 9500 pro was not a brilliant gaming card when new and now is barely comparable to an integrated GPU like the intel HD 4000 so I wouldn't expect it to play modern games very well. I have a radeon 9600 pro in another PC and it can barely play World of Warcraft on low settings. |

It sounds to me like you are not using the right ones. If you have not already give these a try, they work for my 9600pro so they should work for your 9500pro. |

As Xaltar said, be careful about the driver you are using, who knows what Windows Update will give you. Is it the same driver as in the other PC that this video card works better in? How different is this other PC? That could make a big difference. So this card is PCIe 1.0, with 128MB of memory. The games you are using must be rather old. |

Even older hehe, its AGP x8. Should be fine for older games like Neverwinter Nights 1/2, Halo 1 and basically anything 2004 or earlier. Interesting side note, the first PCIE GPUs from ATI (now AMD) were the X(x)00 series with Nvidia's being the Geforce 6000 series.
