Need a low-end PCIe video card...

I'm looking for a low-end, slow, cheap video card for a server I'm building. There will be no gaming, no overclocking, and nothing at all graphics intensive on this server. In fact, I'd use my circa-1997 ATi mach64 if I had an open PCI slot.

The lowest end I have seen, at least on NewEgg, are boards based on the 6200TC chipset.... is there anything else out there?

Thanks!
 
If PCI cards are out of the question a 6200TC is about the cheapest thing you can get. Just make sure (if possible) to set it to not use any system memory.
 
for a pci-e slot eh? hmm...

go with the 6200s...cant really see any other low end pci-e cards, unless you count an ati x300 series...

You need an x300, preferably SE with 64 bit memory. Much lamer than any 6200.

Lame is good. Thanks. 🙂

Will an x300 work on a motherboard with an nForce chipset? That's my only concern with going ATI...
