Hello all, i need some help. Here are my system spec's.

Amd Athlon 64 3200+ Socket 939 Venice Core
2 gigs Corsair Dual channel
Vanilla 6800 agp

Im looking to upgrade my system in time for Vanguard SOH. Im looking to get a new video card, but im worried about cpu bottlenecks. Could anyone recommend the best card under 300 bucks that wouldnt run into any bottlenecks with my proc? Im not really an overclocker so im looking for the best performance i can get on stock settings.

Thanks for the help.

x1950pro agp or 7600GT agp if you can find them

Those were the 2 that i am looking at currently, i was just worried they would be overkill for my proc.

Think of it this way: They will serve you nicely when you do upgrade your CPU.

High end AGP is a waste of money.

Hmm any recommendations on a mobo that i can just drop my proc/memory in and go?
 
Assuming that's 939/DDR (think it is but not sure)- take a look at ASUS' A8N line. The A8N-E board is very solid.
