Card Recommendation?

[d1c1ple]

HI all,

My current card is long in the tooth - Nvidia Quadro2 Pro 64MB DDR.

I'm thinking of going to either a FX 5700Ultra or 5900SE or Radeon 9600 Pro/XT or 9700/9800 non pro. I'd like to keep my $$$ low..

Any feedback is appreciated.

My system specs are below
Asus A7N266C (Nforce 415D)
512MB (2x256 PC2100)
60GB Maxtor 7200RPM
250GB W.D SE 7200RPM
LiteOn 411S DVD-R/RW+R/RW
40/80 DLT on Adaptec 29160
Antec SX830

try to find a 9500pro ... its pretty good, better or equal results against 9600xt ... its all about the pipelines it has ... it should cost you like 190 or something ... check pricewatch.com newegg.com etc...

BFG 5900NU for $199. God I've posted that link a lot. The 9700 pro is also a good deal and can be gotten for about $210-$230.

If your still looking, they make a 3850 in AGP now that would really help you out.

HA! 4 years........

To think I was going to flame a dude for telling someone to buy a radeon 9500 for $190.
