Comment: I'm lightly upgrading my brother's PC to a GeForce4 and adding 256mb of PC133 RAM. What I'd like to know is what manufacturer you guys recommend(I'm thinking of XFX), and if I should shy away from cards with suffixes like "Ti" and "MX." Also, what the numbers mean after the title of the card, ex: GeForce4 MX 420.
I just ask that you don't recommend any thing higher than a GeForce4. Also if "generic" RAM is risky to buy?
Thanks.

Reply: (edit)I have had Inno3D and Gainward Ti4200s and the fan went both times. Generic Ram is pretty rubbish
