New Video Card, Older Mobo Dilema

[Jim Fox]

Ok, still working on this old Asus P3V4X mobo of mine with a PIII-1000,
PC100 512MB ECC. Was thinking I am going to get a Ti4200. Is it going to
make much difference if I get a 64mb unit or a 128mb unit? And it will
support a 4x slot, right?

THANKS

There is a recent AGP 8x version of the Ti4200, but all of the older ones
are AGP 4x. Running a P3-1000 will limit you somewhat with the most recent
games, so a 64MB version may not seem as bad a choice as it looks. It also
runs slightly faster than the 128MB version, due to the different memory
type it uses.
