Sure it beat some of the old cards when it came out, but it was quickly outdated. Plus while it worked good on the openGL shooters, that was about all it was good at. If you didnt play shooters it didnt do much for you. Geforce 2 was an all around better card.
Larger ram sticks are hard to run at their full speed in systems, you are very dependant on your cpus memory controller. Sounds like your cpu is just unable to handle those 32 GB sticks at full speed, or with the extra old sticks. You may want to see if there is a bios update, as those can...

I used that heyboard from 1998 until 2016, and only reason I stopped using it was my sick cat threw up a bunch of liquid on it and it was never the same again. I completely took it apart and cleaned it, but several keys never worked again and I ended up having to replace it with a corsair keyboard.
