Hi I have been thinking. This is only a 400Mhz Sawtooth, nothing mind blowing, how much of a difference would a new graphics card actually make.
It has a 16MB PCI ATI Rage 128 Pro card at present. I have been looking at a 16MB AGP ATI Rage Pro card (one that originally should be in it) and a 32MB PCI ATI Radeon 7000. Is AGP that much faster than PCI? I have been Googling the question and it seems not. I have both Tiger and Leopard installed on the Sawtooth and the only advantage of having a massive graphics card would be for Core Image and Quartz Extreme in Leopard. However, I use Tiger the most and this is very spritely as it is.
