Hi, Simon -
I'm using a GeForce4 MX 32 mb VRAM in my Sawtooth, which works quite
fine (although without Core Image). These were OEM in one of the
later models (G5, I think). It's a HUGE improvement over the Rage
Pro. I believe these can be found with 64 mb, also. Mine was $35 USD
a couple years ago on the swap list. Plug -n- Play.
Good luck,
V Mabus
