Hello everyone,
In continuity with this thread: Buying a Soltek SL-65KV2-T socket 370 motherboard - what are the best/most adequate Pentium III CPU for it?
I would like to ask for your help regarding the graphics card for a Windows 98SE build based on:
- MSI 815 EPT Pro motherboard with 512mb RAM (I ended up buying this one instead of the Soltek)
- PIII-S Tualatin 1400mhz 512 cache processor (I saw that with the latest 7.4 BIOS it is possible to run this processor on the MSI board)
I was kindly advised on some Nvidia cards for this build in the previous thread, however I am finding it very difficult to find the advised models locally.
Trying to expand my choices, could you please advise me on some more ATI / Nvidia models that would push this PC as far as it could go?
My board is AGP 2/4x, will that be a problem with an AGP 8x card? Not actually knowing the limits and intricancies is hindering the search also, I think.
DOS games are not a priority, I would just like the most powerful graphics card possible to go along with the processor, in the lines of the "ultimate Win98SE build" from the era.
As always, thank you so much for your replies.
