Looking to buy an AGP graphics card for under $80. I haven't followed anything AGP in a long time.

But need a graphics card for a LAN PC that I built out of spare parts. Basically looking for the best performance I can get for that much. Prefer used since I have exactly $85 in cash in my paypal and can not spend anymore.

AMD XP 2500+ running at 2.2 ghz
2x512 mb PC3200
430 watt antec truepower psu

Right now I'm thinking AGP 6600GT, how does that sound? Thanks guys
 
If you're looking to spend under $80, I'd suggest either getting a 6600GT or 9800XT. If you can swing it and don't mind an 'open box' item, then that x1600pro would do as well.
 
for $80 get the 6600GT, it stomps all of the following :

5800 Ultra
X1600
9700 Pro
X1600 Pro
5900
9800 Pro
5900 Ultra
5950 Ultra
9800XT

This is also roughly these cards ranking in performance : )

I scored a 9600XT and a 6600GT AGP from ebay for $62 shipped. ($55 + $7 shipping). I think I got mad lucky on the 6600GT though.
 
Thanks 6600GT is looking good. The 9800XT is a huge underperformer compared to the 6600GT.

I will look at the X1600pro as well, looking for reviews now. Thanks everyone
