Hey, I have an ASUS A7N8X-VM motherboard and I recently want to upgrade its videocard. I'm a novice at this so I'm just wondering if NVIDIA Geforce 6600 is good ? My motherboard has an onboard Geforce 4MX GPU so I wonder if it will be a problem ? Thanks for answering !

Geforce 4MX is teh suck. I don't have a reference, but surely a 6600 is much faster.

What's your processor?

My CPU is ATHLON 2100 XP, which I like

Ok, I'm guessing a 6600 would hit the spot. Look it up on anandtech.com or something.

I was going to recommend a 6600GT, but with that processor it would bottleneck it so it would be wasted money.

The Geforce 4MX is essentially the Geforce 2 64MB. It's ANCIENT.

Yeah, I just want to make sure that the two are compatible, and no problem would arise

Just make sure it's an AGP card. It should work if so, unless there's some crazy compatibility issues with different versions of AGP.

Edit: It is AGP. Didn't see the video link.
