Here's the specs on the card I'm looking at:

I'm not stuck on this card, but I think it's about the best thing I can shove in my 8X AGP slot.

Everything else on this rig is pretty decent, I just screwed up and bought a GeFroce MX 4000 card without researching it first. It's 128mb ram, and AGP 8X, but the bit interface is only 64 bit and it's only DirectX 7.0 Not good for playing Counter Strike. It works--for 20 minutes at a time--then it locks up and I have to reboot.

Is there a better card I could put on my board?
