Apologies ahead of time if this isn't the right group,
but...
I have an AMD Duron 1.8 Ghz
512 mb 3200 Mhz ram
ASUS A7V8X-X mobo
3-Fusion nVidia
GeForce MX4000
AGP 8X 128mb
275 Mhz
RAMDACS Dual 350 Mhz
Direct X9c compat Open GL
LMAII AAT
(don't pretend to know what half that stuff means)
I am a hard-core gamer, and I have a number of what *I*
would call "high-end" games,
Delta Force Black Hawk Down Team Sabre
18 Wheels of Steel
Pro Bass fishing 2003
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
Special Forces America's Army
Doom III
CSI
etc.
I upgraded some time ago from a different 128 mb card
(can't recall what it was, now, sorry); but I still
have it when I can find it.
because the old card wouldn't play some of my games.
However, the old card DID play one I was just getting into,
which is Area 51.
My new card doesn't play this game; half the screen is
whited out, which it DIDN'T do before, so I know that's not
what the game's supposed to do.
Now to my question. Will an AMD Duron 1.8 Ghz
ASUS A7V8X-X mobo
and 512 mb 3200 Mhz ram
support 2 video cards?
both mine are AGP, so I would obviously have to get a PCI
card.
Is it possible to run 2 graphics cards on my board/cpu?
Is it practical ?
Or do I just need to bite the bullet and buy a $150 +
graphics card?
(I'm a fully disabled, retired, senior, so money IS a large
part of the issue)
TIA
