Siro,
I suggest that you buy a very cheap graphics accelerator right now and buy a better one later on with the new system.

Since none of the cards support DirectX 9, that seems to be the best course of action.

Dude, buying a new graphics card for a PII 400? That's like adding a hemmy to a yugo (sp.?)...
Check out tassadars "help me buy a new computer" tread, that says a lot...

Most games don't do a lot of number crunching, so it makes sense to have a good graphics card.

He is right, pII 400 is too slow. What you say is kind of right too, but well, misleading. PII 400 is too slow period. Good card to go with that comp is voodoo3, anything more is waste of power. PII 400 can't even utilize all the power of gf2.
