Ok my system is as follows
Asus p4p800-e deluxe
1 gig of kingston ddr 400 ram
sapphire ati radeon 9800 pro (flased to xt and OC to 432/370 iirc)
120 gig sata
pentium 3.0e (northwood core i think)
yada yada yada
Now on sale right now 300 dollars off at futureshop is a ati radeon x850 xt for 299.99 (Canadian). first off, will i see a good/amazing gain over current oc'd to shyte 9800 pro? Secondly, will my processor bottle neck it badly? I know it is older, but it is still 3g.
Next, will i be kicking myself when i decide to upgrade because it is old standard AGP?
Please help...xbox 360 is not avail. and I love my computer games still I am noticing many newer games i have to run at mediocre settings to get good frame rates.
