Two very old cards which one better?

Hey people!

Ok I have a Geforce 6200 (AGP) and an aTi 9600XT (AGP) and I want to know which one is better. the 6200 has more memory and has newer technology while the 9600XT is a bit older but has a 128-bit memory interface (geforce has 64-bit). the 9600XT has 128mb or DDR RAM and the geforce has 256mb. Which is better? I have both of these lying around and its for my sister who just wants to play some 2D MMOs.

regards, me!

If it only for 2d graphics then it doesn't matter. The 9600 has a better gpu but low memory. the 6200 has a bad gpu but higher memory. I would just go with the 6200 just because.

For 2D games I think pretty much any card that can support your monitor properly can handle it.
