OK, so i got a nVidia 5700 agp card but i have a dell optiplex 260 and i should have known that a full size video card would not work in this proprietary system (this system takes half-height cards) :( So, i can install a PCI video card and i found one with 128meg RAM (ATI Radeon X600SE) that is a PCI Express card. What i am trying to accomplish is, now with my current setup (intel i845 video builtin card) my system is slow. The browser loads slower and after a minimize, all apps load a black window then show the full app. Things are overall alot slower. So i want to correct this slowness and black window loading (my guess would be that the intel i845 video card does not have enough memory to do desktop effects). My question is, will this PCI Express card "speed" things up or will i need to get a agp card? Thanks for any feedback

What you install depends on which slot is on the motherboard. You can't install a PCI-E card in an AGP slot, and vice versa. I'd stay with nVidia, if possible, rather than ATI, as the drivers are less of a problem ____________________________________________________________________________________ Take the Internet to Go: Yahoo!Go puts the Internet in your pocket: mail, news, photos & more. http://mobile.yahoo.com/go?refer=1GNXIC -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
