What is the NVIDIA KOB SP6800AG/32 GeForce2 MX400 Video Card?
The card is powered by the NVIDIA GeForce2 MX400 chipset, part of NVIDIA’s second-generation GPUs. It is intended for regular users and sought to provide a cheap substitute to powerful graphics cards without sacrificing much gaming, 2D/3D rendering, and general multimedia performance.
The KOB SP6800AG/32 model has 32MB of SDRAM video memory and AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) support—the de facto interface prior to the advent of PCIe as a mainstream standard.
Key Features
1. Legacy Gaming Performance
While not ideal for contemporary AAA games, this card would be able to run classics such as Quake III Arena, Unreal Tournament, and Age of Empires II at playable frame rates.
2. AGP Compatibility
The AGP interface on the card allowed it to fit a large variety of motherboards that were in use during the late 90s and early 2000s, thus being a favorite upgrade among users looking to spend less.
3. TV-Out Functionality
Having an S-Video output, it provided users with the option to connect PCs to TVs, which increased multimedia usage as home-theater PC setups were gaining popularity.
4. Energy Efficient & Silent
Passive cooling guaranteed soundless operation, which was especially valuable for small or silent systems.
