OK, I have an Athlon XP 1700+ Thoroughbred B, an Asus A7N8X Deluxe rev 2.0
and a WD 120GB Serial ATA drive. I have also purchased a number of cooling
accesories so far like the Aero 7+, Microcool North Pole and 4 case fans. I
am about to purchase my final items - memory and video card. For the memory
I am set on Corsair XMS TwinX 2700LL (2-2-2-5).
Now to the first question...
What videocard do I get?
I want an Nvidia card, and would prefer an MSI Nvidia card. I am not a PC
gamer, but do anticipate possibly playing Matrix Online next year and
Knights of the Old Republic right away. Also I want to get a card that has
128MB of DDR Memory, as that is the recommended memory size for MS Longhorn.
So with all that said, should I get the MSI GeForce FX5200 128MB, or the
GeForce 4 Ti4200 128MB card? Or some other card?
Second Question...
On the jumper settings for my hard drive there is a setting that says PM2
Enabled? Does anyone know what that is?
