You can get a Bloody Monster 5700 for $87.50 from Newegg. But a 5700LE is basically an updated 5200 (faster ramdac, GL1.5 c/f GL1.4) so it depends whether you think the extra $20 is worthwhile.Originally Posted by Mr. Elmo

Member number two in this thread that confuses PCI with PCI express. I can see that they made a mistake naming it that. I think Express Graphics Port or EGP would have been a better name.early Xmas present.... getting this wed, gotta have something to run my chrissy presents with
intel pci express board 915GEV
1 GB DDR2 533 RAM
3.4GHZ
nvidia pci express 6600 128mb <--- best card out there
for some "mild" gaming too
(couldn't find the 256 in time, but looking at the bench marks, the 128 will do just fine)
About this thread... I think that you should consider replacing the motherboard. It would cost almost the same but offers more potential for later upgrades.

Yes and PCI in general isn't PCI Express.
agreed... PCI Express should be changed to another name...too much room for error/confusion.... "EGP" works, make it happen.
