suggestion for video card

Hiyers! I just want to ask if you could recommend or suggest me a video card model. It should be compatible with Pentium III. In my computer, I only have ATI 3D-Rage XL Video Adapter which is really slow. It's size is about 4 MB only. When I'm viewing image, it's really slow. Can you suggest any video card for me? Please!

 

We'll need to know a few things first:

First, what motherboard do you have? If you don't know, you can download and run a program called Everest which will tell you everything you need to know about the hardware in your computer. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181

Secondly, you'll need to tell us what you use your computer for. What games do you play and what exactly do you want to accomplish with this upgrade?

Thirdly, what is the budget, and where are you located?

 

Okay, motherboard...

Motherboard Properties:
Motherboard ID <DMI>
Motherboard Name Hewlett-Packard HP System Board

Front Side Bus Properties:
Bus Type Intel GTL+
Bus Width 64-bit
Real Clock 133 MHz
Effective Clock 133 MHz
Bandwidth 1067 MB/s


Use of computer? Well, most probably for viewing movies and playing games... Type of games... Mmmm... Something like FF7..

Budget, no problem about it.... Location... I live in Philippines.

Just suggest what kind of video card in your mind that I could have... Thanks!

 

Ok, that's not the motherboard model... How about the model of your HP? (i.e. HP Pavilion a1520e)

 

its a Rage card, ive got one and its AGP 2x/4x. something like a geforce 6200 or 6600 will be ok for whatcha wanna do. even a radeon 9600/9800 will be fine

 

But there is also a Rage XL PCI video card. We need to be sure that he has an AGP slot before recommending an AGP card.

 

My dad got something from a surplus shop, I'll check it out first..
