My system specs are pretty decent as is, but I am looking to get a little more umph out of my graphics. The card is going to need to be AGP (as that is the only slot I have on my motherboard), and will replace an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB card.
Here are my current system specs:
Dell PowerEdge 400SC
I had been looking at picking up an ATI x850 Pro but found out the sale ran out at Best Buy (that is what I get for being complacent and dragging my feet), so I am now leaning more toward the x700 line of cards. I haven't used a Nvidia card since I last used an agin MX440 64 MB card. My last few cards have been ATI: 8500, 9600 Pro, and now 9800 Pro. Any suggestions out there?
I am trying to stay as frugal as possible because I need to slip it in under my Christmas budget for myself. I really don't want to blow much more than $200, hence looking at the x700 Pro's.
Give me some feedback, let me know what you suggest and more importantly WHY you suggest it!
