How can you tell which video cards support T&L? Relative wants to play Halo, which requires a video card with at least 32meg of ram and supports T&L. He will have to upgrade his card, but we can't figure out how to tell if a card supports T&L.

I've been looking at Newegg and Tiger, none of the cards say anything about T&L. Google searching has been no help. Also, motherboard only supports AGP 4x, not 8x.

T&L has been standard for a while now, if your friend got his computer within the last 5 years his video card should support it.

However there is a requirement for the games titles out there and they do vary, so the best way to be sure his computer will support a specific game is to check with the game manufacturer for that game's requirement.

Transforming and lighting is supported by any Geforce card, and most Radeons. If you have an AGP port, and want the cheapest decent card you can buy, I'd look at the Radeon 9550 128-bit versions.

That will run Halo great, and most likely will not require a beefier power supply.
