Which GeForce 4 MX is it?

420, 440 (also comes in SE & AGP 8 versions) or 460?

All of them are pretty low spec cards by modern standards.

A top spec card will make you re-mortgage your house, seriously.

If you are a gamer, then buy a new card, if not take the game back and go down the pub

Good midrange cards start at about £60. If you intend to play games, upgrade.

I think you should do that anyway. I can't see the attraction is sitting at home playing games when there a whole world full of real people out there........


But that's just my take on life
