Y'know, I was quite happy with my 9800pro until Oblivion came along...
Anyways, I have a 3.0GHz P4 (socket 775 Prescott) on an 865PE motherboard with 1.5 gig RAM and a Hercules 9800 pro. I'm looking for the best value AGP card up to a maximum of £150, that will give a worthwhile improvement over the 9800pro. I've been looking at an X800 GTO which seems like a good price, but the XFX 6800 GS is down to £153 in This Week Only - would this be a better bet?
Oh, and please don't just tell me it's time to go PCI-E... that is unless you're also prepared to tell me what card to go for, which socket 775 mainboard to upgrade to, and exactly how this will work out cheaper...
Thanks
