can anyone suggest a good replacement for my ageing ati 9800 pro card, ive only got an agp slot. the pc is only really used for music and playing dvds. also may play a few games.

many thanks
 
x1900 pro if you have a desire to play newish games.

or possibly something like 2400 Pro if you dont play any games except solitaire

will play a few games but wont be top spec ones as got a 360 and a wii. ocuk doesnt seem to list the 1900 unless im missing it. any suggestions from their range.
 
ok guys many thanks. are these the best two suggestions. thought id have to spend more to be honest. will they both support hd with reference to paying dvds as will get a hd drive when they drop down a little more.
 
I remember seeing a topic thats states that there will be an AGP version of 3850 coming out. If you plan on using the current system for a long time then waiting for the 3850 coming out in AGP should your best bet.
 
ok cheers guys so im best waiting for the 3850. any idea how much they are going to be as dont really want to spend a lot ansd when they are released.

Seeing as the 3850 AGP will be the top line DX10 AGP card on the market and brand spanking new, i wouldn't expect them to be the price of a cup of tea.
