[loganz702]

im using a p4 3.2ghz 1tb
my graphics card is only a fx5200.
i beilive its a AGP.
what is the best graphics card i can get that is agp ?


thanks for looking !!

I wouldn't waste your money on old AGP, although something like a AMD (ATI) 3850 or 4670 are possibly the highest cards I've seen with AGP (may be wrong).

You would be better off upgrading your CPU/motherboard/ram and getting a PCI-E graphics card though in the long run.

couldnt agree with you more mate .
im saving up at the moment and this is just temp.(saving for gaming pc build)
i got 4gb ram somewhere ill stick it in for now , ill will search up the graphic cards to see if they are any good.
did geforce do any more cards after the fx5200 ?
also is the 6600gt agp ? can i get bigger than a 6600gt (AGP).

THANKS FOR FAST REPLY

7800GS what about that Redmint ?
Or 6800gt best option ?

How much we talking cookeh ?
and i know there are so many Gfx cards available im unsure on witch one to get to be honest. i installed the 4gb ram and worked wonders.
considering getting a HD3850 / 7800GS / Unsure yet :/

Honestly I think you should save up for a brand new system instead... That P4 will bottleneck the 3850...

what does 'bottleNeck mean mate'

 

[loganz702]

[loganz702]

Spec pritty **** but it will do for now
Motherboard - gigabyte GA-85Q800

7800gs looks to be ok.
