9800pro to ?

[willd58]

Hi all, iv been advised that with my budget, i cant go to socket 939 or later yet, so i cant afford to go PCI-E. With that in mind, what AGP card is worth upgrading to from a 9800pro?

Leadtek GeForce 7600 GT 256MB for £109.99?

Or is BFG GeForce 7600 GS OC 512MB even better but cheaper at £89.99?
(i have no idea, iv just seen the GS has double the ram)

Any advice would be great, current system is

9800pro (socket 754)
1gig DDR ram 3200 (no idea what this means!)
AMD 3200 64
350W Sonata black 1 PSU

I suppose i could stretch to £120, i get PC stuff without VAT. Are there any other suggestions? Any other big improvements over the 7600GT for not much dosh?

What about the BFG GeForce 7800 GS OC 256MB at £164.99?

Is there a huge difference between this and the Leadtek GeForce 7600 GT 256MB at £109.99?

Would it be worth the extra money? Sadly the Gainward BLISS GeForce 7800 GS's are out of price range.

Thanks for your help so far

Shhhh don't say that, he ordered the 7800gs last night

lol! I did indeed, it was the only one in price range that was in stock, and i was informed that whilst it wasnt a huge improvement over the GT, it was better, so i went for it.
