Rage 128 pro ultra GL AGP

Well I have a Rage 128 pro ultra GL AGP and its pretty much a POS and im wondering what card I should get to upgrade? I have been having trouble finding anything because the metal bay in the back is like half as long as normal cards could you recomend some better cards? Even 64mb would be decent but 128 is prefered...

I don't understand what you mean? Sadly, due to spammers, you can't post a link to a picture or anything, but if you can describe where to find such a picture or link to an article, it would help a lot.

We also need to know what motherboard you have, what CPU and what PSU you have in your machine, before we can make a good recommendation.

MMkay do a google image search for "ati rage 128 pro ultra gl 4x agp" and it should be the only one that pops up...as you can see it is extremly short and the bay cover is about half the length of a normal agp card. SO the problem is does anyone make an AGP video card that will fit that bay slot because the tower only has slots that size...I mean I guess i could cut a whole from the side of the tower so a normal card would fit in there but that would be quite a hassel...Basicly im just looking for a video card that can play some newer games more smoothly and such so I will be upgrading RAM and video card but right now im worried about the video card....

Oh right, I see your problem... For everyone else:


To be honest I would leave it alone... Cards don't come with such a backing plate. Your only chance to do it without taking a hacksaw to the case would be to take the plate off the Rage and fit it to a new card (they're usually just held on by a couple of screws and the nut-type-things on the DSUB connector which can be screwed off.

Trouble is, though, that you'd have to find a card which has the DSUB connector in exactly the same place... And I don't think that would be an easy thing to research. You could try a low-profile card like an nvidia FX5200.

We still don't know what motherboard/CPU/PSU you have, though.
