be stick with a motherboard with a agp video slot , I think I would be stick with 128mb vram forever , or until I shell out the buck for a new board . follow the recommendation of a mmorpg friend , I order this card . after install the hardware and the driver , I immediately load Age of Conan -lrb- which be notorious for laugh at sub-par video card -rrb- , and my jaw drop . the render speed and the detail be amazing . unlike a previous card buy from a third party , this one do not crash every 20 minute . I could not be more pleased . highly recommend .
