    I performed the same test as in my previous post : playing the very=20
    same video sample on both cards and the gloabl cpu load is roughly th=

    same, with more or less 8%/9% for mplayer and 10% for XFree86 (4.3.0.=

    debian) on both cards.
    now you can of course reach better performances on AGP, like 80 fps=20
    with fgfs which is impossible with the PCI card, at least because the=

    gpu is much weaker.

    AGP is nvidia 4200 ti
    PCI is nvidia MX 440
