    give it a bit of time and you should find the answers

    perhaps if you posted on the right board :)
    at the moment theres a discussion about the geforce4 on technology. personally I think 128mb ram on an mx card is pointless due to the lower memory bandwidth on those particular cards.

    Well....ive never seen a Geforce4 mx440 with 129mb of ram before. My one has only 64 :( ...still it kicks ass :)

    The Geforce4 mx440 is a good card.... and i would get one. Make sure your mobo can handle it though ;)

    prob better off getting a lower end ti, mx's won't be worth sh|t by the time doom 3 comes out (i'm probably wrong, but i feel a bit argumentative today)

    the ti4200 did pretty sweet, nearly 200 fps in high detail

    Radeon 8500 is cheap
    Ti4200 is also cheap and a classy card
