I wouldn't spend a lot of money . I bet a good 32mb card is at a very good price right now ! B)

$ 15.00 cnd would be tops tho. Used less

[DarkClown12]

I live in the USA and also i have a extra radeon 7000 64mb agp, but the only thing on the emachine mobo is 2 pci slots, any way i can make it work with that mobo without buying another card or something?
