yea umm... i have an AGP 8x slot.. and im juz wondering if i should get a 7800GS to replace my x1600.. cuz x1600 doesnt really satisfy me... i wanna get Rainbow Six Vegas to run very smoothly on my comp. or if u have any other video card suggestions that wouldnt pass $60.. please tell me.

My COmp Specs.

Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.00 GHz
2 GB RAM
x1600 AGP
Windows XP Pro Sp2

thats about all i know...
im juz trying to get rainbow six vegas and call of duty 4 to run very smoothly on my comp.
 
Display, resolution your trying to run?

While not the best AGP card, it's probably the best you can do for $60.

Your CPU is kind of weak too. I would consider saving up for a system overhaul.
 
im runnin on the lowest resolution.. and i even tweaked it... but x1600 isnt juz enuff... but do u think 7800GSOC would fix this?
 
For rainbow six your going to need a 3ghz P4, and for COD4 your going to need a 2.4ghz P4. So i dont the the video card is going to matter much and i dont think any of those games are gonna run "smoothly".
 
ohh well then i have no choice but to throw these games away.. but anywayz.. do u guyz know any FP or TP Shooter Games that has the same features like rainbow six vegas? like i need something like that... that my comp could handlee ... thx in advance
 
the older R6 games are great not the best looking but i think they play better then R6V

but hold on to the new ones
no point is throwing money away just save up for a some new parts
you may be able to pick up a P4 3.0 on the cheap if you look around

Or you can just upgrade your PC. It doesn't cost too much money these days for a decent gaming rig if you can reuse some parts.

As for tactical shooters, some recommendations:
- America's Army
- Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30

The 7800GSOC would help but the CPU will still limit you a bit.
 
can u guyz find me a good cpu then? i only got $60.

oh and i need a modern first person gameee like rainbow sixx..i dont like those historical oness..
 
oh and will overclocking my CPU and Ram helppp?
if it would

HOW to overclock? lol
 
p4 2.0 & R6V sounds like a nightmare. Even when I had my p4 3.2 and a 6800GS, it ran choppy. Sorry to say, but you'll need a new system if you want to run that game smoothly. $60 will get you nowhere.
 
you cant get shit with 60 bucks. you are best off saving for a new pc man.

a 7800gs in that pc will be a waste because of the bottleneck the cpu will put on you.
