And maybe i want to sell this cheap card (35 euro,s):


Productcode 10017440
Categorie Computeronderdelen > NVIDIA GeForce AGP
GPU snelheid 350 MHz
Geheugen snelheid 533 MHz
Geheugentype DDR2
Interface DVI
Interface D-sub VGA
Aansluiting AGP 8x/4x
Geheugen 256 MB DDR2
Uitvoering Retail

Type NVIDIA GeForce 6200 LE

Is this usefull? This card got DDR2 memory,my pc ram memory,they can work together? (My old v.card GPU 325 MHz and Memory 325 MHz too)

I hope you can help me with this.

Thank you.

Sorry for my confusion but your scan shows your current card:

RADEON 9700 PRO

You want to replace this with what?

Where does the NVIDIA GeForce 6200 LE come from?

As to memory they work together: yes.

I want to replace the 9700 pro card with a new 6200 LE from pc shop in town here.
I can even buy a XFX GeForce 7900GS 512MB DDR3 2x DVI AGP card,its 129 euro but should it work much better then my old card? because the Pent.4 and old Asus P4B motherboard?(only support 4x AGP)
Some say:no too slow/old motherboard,others say it,s a faster card so buy it.
What,s true?

An 8X card will run as 4X on your motherboard.

You also need to verify the minimum PSU requirement of newer cards on old systems.

I don't think you'd see a difference with the 6200 LE.

Going up to a 7900 you probably would see some difference but again not the full potential of the card.

The 7900 recommends a 400 Watt PSU.

Thanks for you answer.

No problem. Let us know if we can help further.
