Re: Freezes up Need good cheap video card!
Oh, yes, he's right.
Versions <1.6 (IIRC) of this board do not have an AGP slot.
If so, you need an PCI (not PCIe !!!) card.
I cards I mentioned above should be available as PCI cards as well. Over here, strangly, the Fx5200 PCI cards are 2x as expensive as the Radeon 7000 cards (~35Euro vs. 70+ Euro). Personally, I would go with the ATi card, especially as the whole system isn't that up-to-date as well .. anything more expensive would be wasted.
