GF3Ti200 or GF4MX400 or Radeon 9200SE

[DarkTXKnight]

Ive got a computer that Im building for a relative out of some of my spare parts and on occasion they play some games with me online ( Q3, UT2004 primarily) Which of these cards is the best to go with an Athlon 1800+ ??? I have played games with all of these cards when they were in my mahcine and at medium settings all have done well. She cannot afford a new card so please no suggestions for a 6800 or something like that, I am just trying to figure out which one of these spares has the best shelf life.
Thanks!

The GF3 Ti card will be marginally faster than the 9200se card. Particularly in OpenGL games such as Q3. The MX440 is a DX7 card. It would be my last choice. GF3 FTW.

A second vote for the GF3, especially if OC'ed.

Yep... the good old GF3 is going to be easily the fastest of those three, my original GF3 (pre-Ti models) is still running in my wifes PC & I've actually played doom 3 on it a few times just to see what it could do... it's not very pretty but its playable at 640x480 high detail & Quake 3 vintage games run just fine at 1024x768.

will the gf3 go well with a celery 2.0 and 512 ram or should i leave it with the 1.8 amd

If that's a desktop P4-based Celly (128KB L2), the AMD will pw3n it.
