video card question

[sabwafare2001]

I own a AG315-64 Video Magic 64mb sdram video card, my scores on 3dmark are always below 2000. It has a sis 315 chipset. If I upgrade my video card, even back to a 32mb, will my scores be better or/and would it just be better to get a another one period. I don't want to spend more than $70 on one.

What chipset is the Magic video card based on? Because with your system that's competely bottlenecking your system. Go to www.pricewatch.com and check out what video cards you could get for around $70. Strong recommendation are the Radeon 7500s or GF4 Mx440.. I good choice would be to save up alittle more and get a GF3 Ti200 that would really be sweet. There's someone in the classified that's always selling some for $70 or so. So when you get 100 post you could go check that out too.
