tell me if my buy was good

i recently bought a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGPX8
do you think it's a good card?
i don't know really how to try it out...
im gonna get me a copy of counter-strike, but until then, is it a good buy?

Depends how much you paid. It's not particularly fast, but the one we have works well enough for most purposes.

i paid like 120 bucks...
how much fps would that get me in counter-strike or a game of sort?

I've bought the lastest and it's supports up to APG 4X . Did they release APG 8X Slot ?:rolleyes:

and about the card , it's wonderful for games esp , high resolution rates , most important is to get the most update driver from the company(Nvidia) not from the cd .

What did you upgrade from? It will be perfect for something like Counter-Strike, I think.

I got mine for $56...and yeah it's great for CS...99 fps solid!

If you are talking about USD/CAD then you got totally ripped off.

They released an update to the AGP spec, which brought about AGP 8X (first seen in the KT400 era I believe...)

The GF4MX 440 isn't very fast, and would choke on most games at high resolutions (most remotely modern ones anyway). Remember that a GF4MX is merely a GF2-era card with a GF4 memory controller tacked on to it.

Alright thanks .
