Hi all,
I was hoping to get some informed opinions from the community. I am currently using a 32M DDR Radeon on my system which consists of an ancient ASUS P3B-F mobo (BX chipset) with a 500 MHz Slot 1 PIII.
I am currently looking into getting a new vid card to upgrade my gaming performance, but I'm not sure if I'll be bottlenecked by my aging CPU. The card I am looking at is the MSI StarForce 831 (using the GeForce2Pro chipset) because it is the most cost effective GF2 (non-MX) card I can find and I don't wanna spend a small fortune on an aging system. Any opinions on whether or not my purchase is justified? Should I switch to an MX-400 solution since I don't have a blazing fast system? Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.
