I have happily been running an Asus AGP V7700 GEForce 2 GTS 32 MB card for a few years - but recently have lost the ability to run Nascar Racing 2003 in DirectX mode. Game started hanging during menu changes and when getting out of the car - so I ran have to run in opengl and all has been ok....but I am worried that this may be the beginning of the end for my card.
Soooo - I am looking at buying a new card to serve as a stop gap until I have enough $ saved up to build a new system. I am looking at trying to stay under $100 with this card.
My current system (built 2 - 3 yrs ago) is as follows: AMD Duron processor at 700MHz, AOpen AK33 Mobo w/VIA VT8363 Apollo KT133 chipset, 640 MB of PC 133 SDRam, and a Soundblaster Live sound card. The MoBo supports 1x 2x 1nd 4x AGP.
The only serious gaming I have done in the last year is NR2003 (I run in some online leagues).
Looking for a card that will be an improvement over what I have - yet hate to get something that will be hampered by the lack of power the 700Duron provides --- have been thinking about GF TI 4200, Radeon 9000,9100,9200s.
Hope this makes sense - thanks for any suggestions
