MSNwar Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 Does your motherboard have a onboard video chip? I ask because someone in the past did not know their motherboard already had one and we saved them a few bucks.Like Drew said. Rage is good - works stright out of the box in most cases. Doggie's suggestion is also good if your not using he vid card for anything else. Grab a SiS card anywhere dirt cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted March 28, 2003 Author Share Posted March 28, 2003 Well, right now, I have a Rage card in my server, but when I increase the resolution to 1024x768, the images get all "fuzzy". The corner aren't rounded and stuff like that...No, my server does not have an onboard vid chip...Whoever made this mobo was pretty stupid....They put the power plug for the heatsink below the AGP slot, so I can't even plug in a regular AGP video card, that's why I'm asking for a PCI one, to replace the PCI vid. card I have already...
