Hi,
Which nVidia AGP silent GPU would you buy for coding & watching videos with a _very small budget_ ?
Is it's OK to buy an used one, if under warranty (like 2-3 months)? That's actually a point, since I have some cash available on a website that sale used hardware.
Use for :
- 40% coding
- 25% Web
- 25% videos
- old games some times (i.g. Armagetron on Linux, Homeworld on Windows), really don't care about DirectX-99 lol)
- 90% on a linux OS (better avoid ATI )
Present hardware:
- ViewSonic E92f+ 19"
- AXP 1800+ @1687MHz & 256Mo DDR266
- tnt m64
- Winfast xp2000 Deluxe
Hardware [ASAP]:
- same screen + Winfast
- socket nforce 3
- A64 3400+ s754
- 512 DDR400 Geil single channel
Unfortunetly, THG GPU guide is of little if no help for such a profile (there's only ATI under $100)...
I know this may be an unusual question, so every advice will be much considered.
