nForce2 GeForce4 MX440 IGP with 1 GB PC3200 Corsair/Crucial, not sure, but it'll be matched.
vs.
512/768 MB PC3200 Corsair/Crucial, with MSI Ti4400 128MB
w/AMD AthlonXP-M 2500+ @ stock, Shuttle SN41G2V2, 120GB WD, 8x Burner, etc etc
don't tell me to send it to SFF forum, this is purely a video question. I can either pull the video card from another computer and throw an FX 5200 or lower into the old tower, or spend the money on additional, matched memory now, allocate a bit for video, and have the option to upgrade video card in the future without wasting money.
1 gig is definitely overkill, but if i'm gonna use onboard sound and video, it's not gonna hurt. video needs are basic photoshop 7, war3, cs, and that's really it for now/
