Hi, all! I've ordered some parts to build a system just for older games, but now have the issue of selecting a graphics card to use with it. The CPU is an Athlon64 2650e - 1.6 GHz, 512k L2 cache, and a 15 watt TDP - and the motherboard's an ASRock AM2NF3-VSTA, an AM2+ nForce3 'board with 5 PCI slots and an 8x AGP slot. I've also got 2 gigs of DDR2-667 to toss into this beast, and it will all go into an STK7618 case (see here: http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w241/actio … K7618blue01.jpg ).
Graphics cards I have on hand:
* 256 MB Radeon 9550XL AGP
* 64 MB Radeon 9000 AGP
* 128 MB GeforceFX 5700SE AGP
* 32 MB Rage 128 Pro AGP
* 16 MB Matrox G400 AGP
* 16 MB Voodoo3 2000 PCI
Games I'll be playing on this range from ZPC, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, and Shogo all the way up to No One Lives Forever 2. What's likely to give decent performance while also not offering a plethora of driver glitches? Thanks!
