460 seems to do better according to vga charts, but i heard ti 200 was a better card. any feedback greatly appreciated.

Stay away from the GF4 MX series cards, they do not support DirectX 8 and above, or Open GL, between the choices the GF3 TI 200, or 500, is hands down a better choice, and you can purchase online for about the same money through. <A HREF="http://www.pricewatch.com" target="_new">http://www.pricewatch.com</A> I'm not giving you this advise from some article I've read, even though I have read articles on the cards, but from my own hard learned lessons. Hope this helps Ryan.

Details, Details, Its all in the Details, If you need help, Don't leave out the Details.

Both of the GeForce 3 cards outperform the GeForce 4 MX460. THG's own figures:

3DMark2001, DirectX8, XP Pro, 1024x768/32-bit/85Hz
GF4 MX460 6139
GF3 Ti200 6550
GF3 Ti500 7783

Max Payne - Shooting Alex, DirectX7/8, XP Pro, 1024x768/32-bit/85Hz

GF4 MX460 71.8fpc
GF3 Ti200 73.4fps
GF3 Ti500 91.3fps

Personally, I'd go for a GeForce4 Ti4200. Scores of 8882 and 101.1fps are possible with the 128MB version.
