Running a Dell 4700C MCE PC. I'm looking to upgrade to a 256MB video
card.
The last time I did this, it actually slowed my system down. Can anyone
recommend a 256Meg, half hight video card that's MCE compatible.


There we go...thanks.

Half-heights are a bear. Expensive and limited choices. As I recalled, the
best available is the nVidia 7300GS. Not sure about the ATI side as I know
longer believe in them :)

Oh wait, you need AGP. Then you're stuck with the 6200. or ATI 9550. 256MB
is going to be tough.

What are you trying to solve? What's wrong with your current card?
