I have a GeForce 2 MX 400 with P3 1Ghz CPU and 512 mb memory. I mostly use my computer to surf the web and do some light Word and Excel work. I just bought a Dell 19 inch (1901FP) LCD monitor with DVI input. Gaming is limited to our son who uses it occasionally when he is home on weekends.
I understand DVI would improve picture quality but my GeForce 2 does not support it. What would be a good card to replace it? Also, I would like a card that supports dual monitors as I might add a 2nd monitor in the future. I do not care wether I get ATI or nVidia. I just want very good picture quality with stable drivers. I have not set a budget limit. However, I hate to spend money uselessly. Given my low gaming requirements, I do not feel I need the latest and greatest card on the market.
For gaming purposes, how would the card you suggest compare to my GeForce 2? I suppose anything recent will be much faster but would like confirmation.
