Just ordered a 256mb, Athlon 1000mhz with GF2 MX200.

How well will Nascar4 run? Will I be able to use max efx at 1024x768?
thanks

  The athlon is more important I think than the mx200.  Make sure you have
TnL enabled.  Good luck.

Spend the extra to get the MX400.

Gforce 2mx200 = tnt2 m64

Don't buy one make sure you get a mx400 and preferably an asus 7100 pro with
4.5 ns memory
which can overclock to 220, 240 very easily.

That's not true. Geforce MX200 a regular geforce mx with 32MB and a 160mhz
core speed. The MX400 is a 64MB card with a 200mhz core.

I did the MX400 64M card, it stank up N4, it has a slower chipset than the
32M MX200....I returned it and got the MX200...the MX200 should do you fine
if you have the processor speed...which it appears you do...since I only
have a P3 700 and am fine with it

I am sorry but you are wrong the mx200 has HALF THE BANDWITH OF A MX400!!!!
Not to mention that the mx200 is clocked at 166mhz where the asus 7100 pro
is set at 200 (DEFAULT)
What I did say was the 7100 pro can overclock to 240, 260 because of the 4.5
ns memory on the card.

I would suggest that you do some research on the cards I know I have.

You must have had a suspect MX400 then - I've just tried both an MX200 64Mb
and an MX400 64Mb (both SDR) in my AMD Athlon 1.4 with 256Mb DDR and the
MX400 3DMark2001 score was double that of the MX200 ... 2276 on the MX400
with no tweaking and drivers that came with card, and only 1102 on the
MX200. The MX400 has almost double the throughput of the MX200 (2.1Gbps
compared to 1.3Gbps).
