what should I get?

[WhiteWonder]

I have a banshee right now, and I really need to get a new vid card. What should i get? I can only spend around $150, give or take $30-$40.

get a Geforce GTS. or if u can wait a KyroII might be worthwhile. what kinda processor do you have right now? no point getting a wicked graphics card if ur cpu cant provide the horsepower to muscle out the card

I have a 466 celery right now, but that is what i will upgrade after the vid card.

Geforce 2 MX...

Read some reviews on video cards in your price range on this board or other ones.

Geforce 2 GTS around $150 or MX around $90.

Thanks for all the info!

All depends on what you plan on doing on the computer really. FPS games? nVidia. Anything else? Radeon.

either $80 radeon LE or geforce2mx
plus extra 128-256M ram.

It's a waste of time getting a GF2 MX because it's too slow, underpowered and too expensive. Your choices are a Radeon LE, GF2 GTS or a Kyro2. I'd probably get the GTS.
