I was wondering if dropping in a 7800GS 256mb AGP card would play the recent and upcoming games. At least up to Crysis... Would it help me play Crysis at decent detail? Not sure what to think.
 
It would definetly bump your overall video gaming thats for sure. I dont know if that cpu will bottleneck the card during crysis.
 
I tihnk you'll be fine on the CPU/Vid bottlenecking. Your system (CPU/RAM/Mobo) is getting long in the tooth, though. If you had any bottlenecking in Crysis, it would be your primary "guts," meaning all of it. A 7800 would certinaly be better, but Crysis is gonna be a killer on your hardware, IMO.
 
u will be fine with 7800 GS cuz crysis game was design to run good on old machine, too.
 
I have the Exact same Computer specs almost. except for the sound card. I Was using a ti 4200, I couldnt play battlefield even in low settings. But i tossed in a 7800 GS OC, and It helped 1000%. It'll definitly be an improvement. Only game i've run into that i couldnt really play on high graphics with my current setup. and the 7800 GS OC was Vanguard. But that was during it's beta development. Ibut they may have aded code to make it run smoother since.
