Re: Name this video card

Onboard video is probably better.

The motherboard model is a VIA chipset M266 running a 2.0 GHz Celron. (»www.shopping.com/xPF-Asrock-ASRo···idge-VIA) Do you think the onboard is better than what is on this board? It currently only has 190 MB of ram, if I used onboard then 32MB will be dedicated to video. And the computer has XP Pro installed.

The computer will not be used for any gaming. And I'm sure my dad would have survived with the on board video. But I wanted to maximize the RAM it has.

IMHO - Any video card is better than a onboard video. The onboard video uses system ram, and uses system CPU processes. An add-on video card has its own memory, and uses less CPU power.
