I've just been given a Rage 128 Pro and a Stealth 3D 2000. As I do not know anything about these video cards, I need some help as to whether they're any good and worth instaling in my comp.
At the moment I'm running on board 16mb SiS graphics on a 1.3ghz Amd Duron and WinXP Pro as the operating system. I also have 256mb Ram.
If any of these are worth replacing over the on board graphics let me know and which one to use. It won't matter for long as the whole PC will be upgraded shortly but at least it will be something better for the time being.

they both suck for newer games, but the rage is your best bet.

Thanks guys! Just fiddling around til I get the new comp built but I think I'll leave it as it is for now. I have a Radeon 9700 Pro which is going into the next machine in a couple of months and it's a drag waiting. Then again I was running a 233mhz Nec Versanote up until a couple of months ago with a 2mb Video Card and no 3D acceleration so I shouldn't stress too much...heh
