If it isnt a Turbocache model (with most makers itll have "TC" in the part number) you should be ok as far as memory usage. Should I just return the 6200 card and chalk it up to lessons learned about teaching an old Dell new tricks?Ĭlick to expand.Yeah, the whole rambus situation is rather unfortunate. The Dell only has a 250W psu, but I am not getting any errors that indicate a lack of power.Ĭan anyone steer me in the right direction as to how to fix this? The video card is passive cooled but according to the monitor, it never goes above 55C in core temp. I loaded the latest video drivers from Nvidea's website, but with the older games such as BF 1942 Secret Weapons or BF Vietnam, I get considerable slowdown and studder even at the lowest settings, where as before with the GF3 Ti200, at lease BF 1942 Secret Weapons played well. I had hoped that this would provide a small bump in video performance for my older PC, since it had the DirectX 9 vs. I have a Dell Dimension 8200, with 256M RDRAM and replaced a 64 Meg AGP Geforce 3 Ti-200 card with an Arcade GF 6200 AGP card with 256M video memory with a 128Meg interface.
