GillsMan Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 No a PCIe card wont work in a PCI slot. Correct - and for reference for the OP, they won't even fit in the same slot! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether these will be enough for 3D I don't know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beneamata Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I believe there are some Nvidia 6200 PCI cards floating around. Whether these will be enough for 3D I don't know. I've got a 6200 PCI (256mb) and it can handle the 3D ok. It is a little jerky but I've read of people here experiencing that with much better GPUs so I don't think it's anything to worry about. Hope this helps a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
