I know that NVidia GeForce 4 can use by The Sims 2. But, i dont know which kind of GeForce 4 can use by The Sims 2. And also, my mainboard / CPU just support NVidia's graphic card. So, if you know the kind of NVidia's graphic card that support T&L, please tell me. Is NVidia GeForce4 MX can i use that ? Or GeForce 2 MX ?
Please help me! IMPORTANT!

I'd recommend the nVidia GeForce 4 MX. As for if your motherboard supports it, who makes it and what model?

My Mainboard is ECS Elitegroup. But i don't know much about the model. Maybe the model is K7SEM Ver. 1.1e. In the mainboard's manual book, i found word that say "The AGP Port only support NVIDIA 4X Card". So, i think GeForce 4 MX can use on my computer. The graphic card vendor is ASUS. The type is V8170 SE/T. Can it use on my computer? I choose that graphic card because it's so cheap.

Ugh ECS...... Elite group computer systems are known to have disastrous results with higher end vid cards.

Use at your own risk.

is a GeForce 6200 a good card?

Yes, but the GeForce 4MX should have sufficed on your current system setup.

Geforce 4 MX, why not the 4Ti, the MX version is notoriously associated as the integrated graphics that came with my moms HP computer...

Yea, but in general the GeForce 4 series was pretty good.

You can use that video card on your motherboard. When your manual states "The AGP Port only support NVIDIA 4X Card" that means it is referring to the "speed" of the AGP slot (4X or 4 times, though in real life it is not 4 times as fast, but I digress). It is weird that it would only support Nvidia, but some board manufacturers might do this on entry-level boards.
