Why not just go with a MX?? It's hell of a lot faster and the price is around $120.

This makes sense for most people. But, if you have a finicky motherboard that can't handle the power of the GeForce 256, the GeForce2 GTS at $145 may be what you need. It uses much less power, and seems to be more forgiving with problem systems than the original GeForce.

I thought I was wrong once...But I was mistaken
It is inhumane, in my opinion, to force people that have a medical need for coffee to wait in line behind people who apparently view it as some kind of recreational activity.

The Radeon 32 MB DDR card is gonna be a much better upgrade, and at about $130, you're gonna get much more longevity out of it than any of the other "bargain" cards out there, with the DX8 optimization and all.

Im sorry and i know people have limits with money but i am sorry i cant see wasting time with a MX card when there are much better cards out there, dont forget!!! YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!!!!!!!
