I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card (currently nVidia TNT) on my AMD K6-2 400 MHz system. Would it make sense to replace it with the Geforce2MX card, or is it too much graphics card for the AMD CPU I have? Would I get significantly better 3D gaming performance with the Geforce2MX, or will it be limited by the 400MHz AMD K6-2?

Make sure you m/b can supply enough power to the AGP Port. Most socket seven m/b's have problems.

GF Cards are notorious taking up lots of power.

The Geforce 2 mx would run just fine with your proccessor. I am running one with mine. I have a K6-3 400mhz. The power issues is with the first Geforce not with the Geforce 2. Though there is a driver issue with the Geforce 2 on VIA Mvp3 chipsets.
