Hey lads

I think I'm going to buy an AGP card to tide me over til I can get a full upgrade next Christmas. Hopefully directx 10 cards will be out and reasonably cheap by then. I've got my eye on either the ATI Radeon X1950 Pro 256MB or GeForce 7800 GS OC 256MB. Looking at my system spec below, which card do you think will suit me better? Obviously the ATI is going to run better but will my system bottle neck it at all?

AMD 64 3.2 Winchester (Going to clock her again to 2.5 or so)
1gb GeIL pc3200 (going to get a second 1gb stick at crimbo)

So lads, I'd appreciate your opinions on which to choose :) Thanks
 
Hi

I would go for the X1950, its quicker and therefore would last a bit longer with upcoming games, also the re-sell value would have course be higher being a newer card. Your cpu clocked should compliment the card very nicely. :D
