Hi. I currently have a computer with a 533MHz processor. I know its slow by todays standards but its going to be for my friends 7 year old son. Its missing a video card and I want to purchase a video card to play older games and maybe some newer games that meet the system requirements. The motherboard has a 2.0 compliant AGP slot and needs a voltage of 3.3v.
I don't want to purchase an expensive video card because the rest of the computer is going to hold back the card. So please help me choose the best video card for this pc. Thanks again!!!!

I would recommend a Geforce 4 TI 4200 128mb, it's an excellent card and even runs some modern games pretty good
