this one is a much more reasonable price, but once again, i dont know much about video cards

i play CoD, CoD:UO and CoD2 @ 1024x768px@100Hz with full detail (DRX7 textures but i can still do it with DRX9 but its not as stable) and no antialiasing and i get 125fps on CoD2 and 333 on CoD:UO and CoD1

im Running a
2.4 Northwood P4 clocked to 2.6Ghz
1GB DDR400 3200
ATI Radeon 9700Pro 128Mb GFX card (clocked to the max and performs just below the 9800pro)


I used to get 125fps on CoD and CoD:UO with my 9250 256Mb card but i got rid of that!

===============================================================

I would advise anyone who is after a new PC/Component (unless its a harddrive or DVDrom) to wait untill feb/march, as most of the MAJOR [Intel,AMD,Nvidia,ATI etc..] players in the Hardware industry will be launching new products meaning the old stock WILL drop in price by a LOT!

Save your ££/$$/€€ and hang tight, it will be worth the wait, especially if it means you can afford to get a new CPU,Mobo and GFX card for about the same as you'd pay for the card now!

================================================================

if you cant wait that long but want a decent PCI Card for about £100 Check

you can more than likely find these cards cheaper on the net somewhere else!
AGP cards are few and far between for budget decent cards as both Nvidia and ATI are carrying out the bulk of their development to make more products for the PCI(SLI/Crossfire) market

Personally i say just wait.

Hmmm, the guy that fixes our computer said we'd better get a new video card quickly, cuz of dissapearing of the AGP video cards.

if he's telling you to get a new AGP card he's a twat and knows sod all about the market.


you need to save a bit more(about £250-£350) and get:
Pci-e motherboard (socket 939)[£60]
AMD CPU (socket 939 over 3000, Venice 3200+ is probably the base)[£120 up]
Pci-e gfx card, ATI is cheaper but the fps gain is slightly lower, Nvidia are faster fps and cost a bit more for the eqivelent card's.[£140 and up]

but those prices are now, in a few months the cpu and gfx cards to have dropped a fair bit, as the next generation stuff is launched.

but if you do get an AGP card, dont waste your money on some all singin all dancin one, because it wont be capable of the next gen games, just get some simple ATI9600 for about £45
