CRT's operate on various levels but what you are concerned with is the input signal.

Input signal for most CRT's are analogue, the card you linked to has digital and analogue outputs so therefore it should work fine, operating on the analogue 15 pin connector...............

Should you wish to upgrade the CRT to a nice Digital TFT in the future, then the graphics card will work fine also..................using the DVI connecter instead........

All depends on what purpose you are buying it for.

I have an FX200 256Mb one, but only use it as I like good images on my PC.

I do not do much/any gaming really so could not comment on how good it is, but for a basic graphics card it looks fine.

Hopefully a gaming 'guru' might pop in and tell you exactly how good it is...................
