Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum which seems to be alive and kicking compared to most other forums which are dead (I've actually posted on forums where the last post was in 2004 hoping to get a reply). Thank god for you guys!

Anyway I have a Shuttle SB51G and I currently use a Radeon 9800 SE 128mb card on it. From what I hear its really good for this pc, but I want to update.

I recently bought a Radeon 9600XT 256mb card for it made by Sapphire. It is incompatible with it for some reason (unless I'm doing something wrong?! I'd love to see how to get this to work!!!!!!).

In short, what is the best video card I can get for this shuttle? It has a 4xAGP slot (yeah I know...old) And the power supply on the shuttle is 200w (you can stop laughing now). I want the best card possible. I'm aware that 256mb over 128mb isn't always the answer. I don't think it can handle a 9800Pro though (unless I'm wrong). Thanks guys and gals

get a 6600GT or a radeon x800 XL from the deals on ati store! under 130$ you got yourself a bad ass card
 
wait will these cards work for sure? and can u tell me which versions...the 128mb or 256mb? can the shuttle sb51g work with the 256mb or will there be voltage probs? have u tried these on ur shuttle sb51g?

thanks man!
 
never owned that shuttle but i owned a socket 939 nforce 3 shuttle with the stock psu an had a 6800AGP in there no problem
 
it applies it will fit , i used the same 200 watt psu as you an all 8x agp cards are backward compatible!
