This is old! I mean, antique! ;-D

You better forget about it, unless you're using it for a Mac pre-G era (like
an 8600 or 7200). And it would be slow even there.

Apart from the skimpy VRam, the Rage 128 is much older than the GF 4 MX.
I mean, like two or three generations before the GeForce 4.
Even with a lousy card like the GF 4 MX, there's no comparison.

And... 32MB? :-D
Do you know nowadays, new video cards have usually 512MB or 1GB?
This should show you how "left behind" a video card with 32MB is...

Personally, I won't consider anything below 128 MB VRam (unless we're
talking about a "retro-computing" machine).
But I'm into videogames... :-)
