Hi

I need to replace a my video card. My comp. has an Athlon T. Bird 1Ghz, Abit kt7a mobo, and 256mb sdram.

I wanna know if a GAINWARD nVIDIA GeForce3 Ti200 64MB DDR AGP is a good card, and if my comp is gonna be cpu limited

thanks

The Ti200 will be fine for your system. I ran a Ti200 on a near identical system a while back (duron 1ghz though), and it ran fine.
Personally, i`d OC as well. You should be able to get it to Ti500 speeds, or normal GF3 speeds at least.

I'd say any video card better than what you have won't make a big difference because then it'll be cpu limited. Right now its probably either cpu or video card depending on the game.
