Video Card

[Tinman66]

Hello all,
I'm looking for a little help. I need to upgrade my PC's graphics card and am looking specifically to upgrade so I can play BF2. I'm new to this forum and I am sure this has been talked about before. But I would like to get whats the latest graphics card out there so I can play BF2 and not have ot update my video card for a while. Is there anyone out there that could help steer me in the right direction?

I have an AMD Athlon XP2400+
512 MB Ram
Graphic Card is AGP
Price Range up to $200

6600gt for ~$90 would not be bad at all

6800xt would be much, much better:

as would a 7600gs from a reputable company:

On paper (and in some of the reviews I've read), the more "modern" x1650PRO is a really good card:

and here's that 6800xt with a rebate:

Best AGP card on the market is a 7800gs, price to match:

But, for the price, this x800gto is where I'd put my money:

I have a Radeon 1800 GTO and I think the price has gone down. It works very well and I can use the max resolution on all my games. Sorry but i can't find a link for you to use.
