Im looking for an AGP or PCI-E Graphic Card Solution for around $155.
I prefer AGP, so i do not have to get a new motherboard and processor and all that good stuff.
This is my rig atm:
2.4GHZ 3400+ AMD Athlon 64 Processor
1GB 400MHZ RAM
160GB 7200RPM WD Caviar HDD
128MB 6800 (Leadtek A400TDH i believe)
Chaintech VNF3-250 Motherboard
Im looking to upgrade the graphics card a bit for my CS:S/BF2/Guild Wars gaming needs.
I REALLY Prefer AGP, in which my budget is around ~$160.
I dont know whether to go GDDR3 or GDDR2 and should i get a 512mb card or 256mb card, lots of variables here for my AGP.
I prefer not to go PCI, because then ill need a new vid card, and ill probably end up getting a new Processor (the 3400 is a Socket 754), but if i absolutely must, then I can spend around ~$120 on the PCI Video card AT MOST.
Id like a reccomendation on the AGP card, but if the PCI is economically more suitable for my situation, ill take it.
Thanks, Commodore
