What processor are you running. It really depends on what you have now.

Um, in that case, get a GF2 GTS or MX400 (u have an AGP slot, right?). GF3 will be bad for sys, and teh Kyro 2 really relies on processor. R7500- no go w/ your sys. Consider getting RAM to 256- it will increase performance.

On pricewatch, 256 (I assume u have SDRAM?) from Micron costs $24. Also, voodoo is no longer around to make new drivers and stuff for their vid cards, therefore I reccomend getting something from a nonexistent company. Hence, Gf2 Pro 64MB (very nice), costs $97 off pricewatch. I think R7500 may be too much for ur sys, ie it won't use its full potential.

DO NOT GET THE Radeon 7000. It is very slow, perhaps even slower than a GeForce2MX-400. 256MB RAM will improve your overall performance. YES, it will be noticable. DO NOT GET A VOODOO5, it's not supported by anyone officially right now because the company went bankrupt. I'd seriously consider saving a bit more for a GeForce2 Ti. While you won't notice a difference between it and a GF2MX400 in lower resolutions on your current processor, should you ever consider to upgrade your porcessor in the future, the GeForce2 Ti will be significantly faster and will last you longer, upon buying newer games in the not so distant future.

Expect to pay a little over $100 for a GeForce2 Pro or Ti. They are both roughly the same price.
