Hi,

I have an 750 mhz cpu and a GeForce2 MX in my system right now. Which video card makes the most sense?
Will a GeForce 3 Ti 200 or Ati 8500 need more cpu power? Should I go with the GeForce 2 GTS?

I had quite a time getting the MX to play stable. anyone have am ati 8500 working stable?

Well, my Duron 600 MHz @850 MHz system ran great on my ABIT KT7/GeForce 2 GTS system, but I think you're CPU limited if you put in a GeForce 3 or Radeon 8500. I'd upgrade the CPU to a 1.2 GHz and then get either video card. I'm getting a 3DMark2001 score of 6450 with my current system. See my system rig for what I am currently using.
