I am building a new machine based on the P4 3.00 GHz 800FSB CPU. I planned on using my (now) old video card, the GeForce 3 Ti500. But I thought maybe I will be choking the whole system by sticking to this old card.
So I started doing research on a new card, which I can afford. So far they (GeF5900, and the Rad9800) are around $400-$500, which I don't want to dish out right now.
So I am wondering, what am I going to loose if I stick to the "old" card?
I play Q3A as my all time fav, but will be going to H-L, and UT (Unreal Tournament) for multiplayer action, and even Homeworld2 when the machine is up and running.
Now that I think of it, should I switch to Windows XP, or is sticking with Windows 98 sufficient.
