If there's any advice - Don't get a 64 mb Geforce 4 mx 440!!
I have an FX5600 128mb which I got a coulple of weeks ago. Its a million times better then that GF4 MX440 it replaced.



Considering I've recently upgraded from a 64MB MX440 to an FX5600 128MB....

PC World in the U.K. sell 64MB GF4 MX 440's for £19.99 I'd happily recommend one to anybody on a budget. However, despite my crappy Celeron cpu & cheap & nasty Jetway MOBO, my Asus FX5600 easily doubled the FPS rate on most of my games, Quake 3 now runs in the low 200's !!! compared to about 60fps with the MX440 - and you can't tell the differance between 200fps and 60fps believe me!

For the price, the MX is very good, the FX52000 128MB are very much better again for about £20 more, and support DX9 (The GF4 MX's are actually DX7 cards, and thus do not support any DX8 features never mind DX9!) Cheap as the MX4's are, the FX5200's are a far better bet.
