Question Video Card

Looking to get a new card as I had to "donate" my old one to my daughter to replace hers that had gone bad. Looking at a GF2 TI and a GF3 TI-200 and a GF4 MX440. What's the difference between these??? All look to be 64 mb of memory but which one is better??? Anyone have any experience with these?? I will be using it on a SOYO TISU Mb with a Celeron 1.1 gig processor.Any help in deceiding would be greatly appreciated.

If money isn't a problem, go with the GF4 4600. The MX one just suck (every nVIDIA MX card sucks ). But I would go with a GF3 or GF3 Ti-200. Are you going to use it for gaming only or word and all those apps? If you don't play much, maybe a ATI card would be your best option.

They are all very simlilar in performance but have you thought about the Radeon 8500 $149, although I'm in the UK so not sure on price but it is very fast.

Oh yeah I have an MX card (although its an Elsa one) MX400, its been good for me although I am not a hardcore gamer, 1024 x 768 is the normal setting for the games i play, its all nvidia based but it seems ok, maybe the Radeon you should look at, I dont have much info on it (i know someone else will).

All the best.
