I'm considering upgrading my current system with a new graphics card, but needed some expert opinions before I do that. Currently I have an older geforce mx400 card with 32 mb ram. About 75% of the time video playback is fine, but with streaming HD these days, video is really choppy. Would upgrading my video card to say a geforce fx6200 or similar with 128 mb ram significantly improve my video performance? Any recommendations for a budget AGP card?
or is the choppy playback having to do with a older processor? Currently the system is running an Athlon XP 1800+ Thoroughbred 1.533GHz Socket A on an ASUS A7N266-VM mobo.
i guess it's debatable whether performance problems are solely due to the video card or the processor...probably a combination of both.
any responses appreciated.
