Is there any point?

[Grumpolini]

My old computer still runs really quickly but struggles with newer 3d games, i was wondering if this could be due to the old graphics card (geforce ddr - i think?)

My mum has a geforce2 mx 100/200 in her computer but she doesn't play any games, so i could swipe that one and put it in my machine if it was better?

Looking at this i could have asked which is the better graphics card? it would've been quicker.

so i will

Which is the better graphics card - Geforce ddr or Geforce2 mx 100/200 and is there a big performance difference betwen the two?

Thanks for any help in advance

P.S. a little off topic but if i wantto link mine and my brothers pc to play games do i need a serial modem cable or a null modem cable?

I don't think you will notice much, if any, difference between those 2 cards.

Any serial cable networking is going to be far too slow to play games. You need network cards and a crossover CAT5 cable. PCI 10/100 network cards are very inexpensive.

Ah well, never mind maybe its time to upgrade my tower.........or kill my brother and claim his computer as my own, i don't fancy shelling out £600....killing my brother it is then.

Thanks for the help

Best wishes
