Hey again.....if you're jumping from an onboard chip to a PCI card, you're going to see a difference.  It won't be as much as an AGP card, but I've been nothing but pleased with my PCI card.  Had I a slot for an AGP card, I would have gone that way, but alas, I don't.  lol

i have a geforce 4 MX420 on another machine here in my cave, it is pretty good for the $100 i paid for it a few years ago, but it is only 64 megs and it does have a significant ammount of lag with 2002. I was upgrading from 11 megabytes integrated!!!  :o

    Righton Gearhead! I have a 400 MX/MX, it's an oldie, but it holds up surpisingly well. Hooray for prehistoric 64MB Graphics Cards.
       And just for a mini-poll, do YOU say, "Graphics Card" or "Video Card?"

    Ha, mine is practically zero. Except for the aircraft, I have that all the way up. What's the point in flying if you are flying a long, blurred together blob?  ;D
