Make that $29 at NewEgg. (You don't mention whether this is AGP 2X, 4X or 8X. This *is* AGP, right?) I also vote nvidia. All prices at NewEgg: GeForce FX5500 128MB DDR AGP 4X/8X card $48 Geforce FX5500 256MB DDR AGP 4X/8X card $51 For future use, though, I'd buy an OpenGL 2.0 card: PNY VCG62256APB GeForce 6200 256MB GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X $60 - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.
