As you can see by my specs, I've got a pretty outdated Video card.
Any suggestions on a good upgrade would be appreciated!!!
Somewhere between $140 -200 range.
Or turn me onto a site that has bang for buck range. I think that the GeForce 3's are out of my range, unless someone knows about a relatively inexpensive one.
Or, are there some GeForce 2's that are pretty exceptable?
Thanks,
Michael

it depends on how much you want to spend
Under 100$-Radeon32mb DDR-65$
100+-Gainward Geforce2pro Golden Sample
180+-Gefroce3Ti200
200+-Radeon 8500
250+-Geforce 3 Ti500

heh...sorry i didnt see you specified a price range.....then my choice would definately be a geforce3ti200....

Thanks Funny,
How does your Power Color work? Any problems with it, etc, ?
I was looking into their line also. I had never even heard of them until last week when I really started looking around.
Where did you purchase yours? I see your in the U.S., so that helps. They don't distribute to a lot of places out here -- like zero in Florida.

Inno3d geforce2 Mx400 64 $67
Not the fastest but does the job for the money

youd be better off getting a radeon 32mb ddr for $65 instead, faster than any mx400 plus youll save $2:D

it runs fine and its oced to 230/460 right now.....i get 3200 3dMarks with a P3 600@840...it aint bad at all......i still recommend the gainward instead because it comes with 4.5ns ram almost guaranteeing you geforce2ultra speeds and higher when oced......

I'd love to suggest a Radeon here but for that price range I haveta suggest a Geforce 3 Ti200 and overclock it.
