I need help choosing a video card.
I currently have a Radeon 9600Pro 256mb card in my computer and honestly it has served me extremely well over the years. I bought a refurbed 6800 card on Newegg and tried it and it experienced a lot of graphic glitches. Newegg is taking it back for a refund.
I need to get something a little beefier now but have a few small problems.
1. Has to be AGP since my motherboard is and I do not want to upgrade.
2. I have an Antec Aria case with a 300w power supply and it can't power some of the larger cards that require power input.
3. I do not want to spend more than $150 on a card.
I was thinking of a Radeon X1600Pro with 256mb of ram since it comares to the 6600 and I prefer ATI over nVidia.
Suggestions?
