I need a new card.

Btw:
RAM: 256 SDRAM (do I need to buy also a SDRAM videocard?)

Hello everybody!

I new a new videocard, the current one is about to give it up.
I was recommended a "GeForce4 MX", but which one should I exactly buy?

My system:

T-Bird P 86-5 (from 8/2000),
OS: Windows Me,
Mainboard: Via ("VIA"?) 694 Chipset,
CPU: 886 Mhz,
256 RAM (clock 100).
My card is now: ATI Rage Fury Pro/Xpert 2000 Pro (AGP).

I called the support, and he said, I can´t buy any AGP card with my
system.
Can anyone please recommend me a GeForce4 MX Card and write me the exact
name (and company) of it?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Stephan

A GeForce4 MX440 with 64 or 128Mb (the 128 may be overkill for your system
though)

Make sure you get a DDR version though, much faster

Thanks, cool!

What´s the difference between "GeForce4 MX 440" and "GeForce4 MX 440 with
AGP 8X"? Are both ok with my system? How about the "GeForce4 MX 440-SE"
(is
it an update ("second edition"?)?)? I think, the support said, I can´t buy
"Quadro" (chip?). My current Bus Typ is "AGP 1X, AGP 2X, AGP 4X".

Yes, the two are independent of each other.

The AGP 8x bus will be faster on a motherborad with AGP 8x support, but as
you only have 4x it will make no difference. It may be prefereable to get it
if you plan to upgrade soon, or there is not much price difference

Maybe you mistyped something, but if you CAN'T buy an AGP card for your system, make sure you are
buying a PCI card then if that is indeeed the case. Was your video integrated by any chance?

Hi!

Sorry, I meant:
I must buy an AGP card, but "not every" (I thought that´s the same as "any"
in the moment I wrote it) AGP card fits with my system, i.e. "Quattro".

What´s the meaning of "SE" in some GeForce4 cards?
