I need a new card.
Btw:
RAM: 256 SDRAM (do I need to buy also a SDRAM videocard?) "Stephan" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ... 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 canīt 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 |

"Stephan" wrote in message ... Thanks, cool! Whatīs 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 canīt buy "Quadro" (chip?). My current Bus Typ is "AGP 1X, AGP 2X, AGP 4X".

Thanks! :-) Yes, the two are independent of each other. -- ex·is·ten·tial·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (gz-stnsh-lzm, ks-) n. A philosophy that emphasizes the uniqueness and isolation of the individual experience in a hostile or indifferent universe, regards human existence as unexplainable, and stresses freedom of choice and responsibility for the consequences of one's acts. 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? -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash "Stephan" wrote in message ...

Hi!
Sorry, I meant: I must buy an AGP card, but "not every" (I thought thatīs the same as "any" in the moment I wrote it) AGP card fits with my system, i.e. "Quattro". Whatīs the meaning of "SE" in some GeForce4 cards? Stephan "Biz" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...
