Anyone know what I might expect for performance out of this card?  I'm in a
bind and I may have to use this card with a borrowed system that doesnt have
an AGP slot.  I have a celery 533 processor with 128MB of RAM

Poor would be my guess.  But more seriously, performance in what games.  That machine is slow all on
its own, even with a GF4 Ti4600 you would see miserable performance out of it with any app that
needed cpu power like N2002 ,GPL, or IL-2, etc...etc....

Not much

The M64 card in itself is not a very good card, it's a cheap version of
the old TNT2 card, which in itself wouldn't be very fast today, in
addition it's PCI so it's giving up some performance there, and you're
mating it to a CPU that has also seen better days

GPL would probably run quite ok if you don't add too much aftermarket
gfx updates, but forget N4/2002 and the likes, although if you're
planning to use it as a dedicated server, that would probably run ok

Basically, as a *** machine I wouldn't expect much

Beers and cheers
