7800 agp series

Hi,

I'm thinking of upgrading my Radeon 9800 pro to one of the following:

BFG GeForce 7800 GS OC 256mb
Gainward Bliss GeForce 7800 GT Silent 512mb
XFX GeForce 7800 GS 256mb
XFX GeForce 7800 GS Extreme Edition 256mb

Would my cpu (P4 3.06GHz) or ram (1.5Gb) be a bottleneck for any of these cards? ANy advice of what card to buy? Thanks,

q

Just realised I've posted this in completely the wrong forum!

Instead of shelling out all that cash for a new card try to find a second hand/new 6800gt on ebay, great deals at around £130. They perform only a touch under the 7800GS.

Whats your budget mate?

Budget wise.....I can just about afford the gainward but I'm finding it hard to justify spending £290! Is it much better than the bfg? That's at the top of my list right now.

what socket is your p4?? If its 775 then a pci-e motherboard and graphics card would be money better spent.
