What one shall i buy? hmmmm

[FTA-mdk]

Ok, i have thought about getting a new graphics card and due to money issues i am either going to go for the 6600 GT (AGP) or 6800le (AGP) and maybe overclock it...(is this a good idea)

My comp specs are:

AMD Athlon XP 2400
1280gb RAM
160gb hdd

I know it's a pants system compared to others, but it plays well + i am waiting till next year to buy a quality system.

(anything else needed?)

What settings will i be able to run on?

On a few websites in the UK i have seen the 6800LE going for very very cheap... But i think it may have been dumbed down alot. When you are thinking about which graphics card to get you also need to think about future games.

How much money can you spend? :p Because then i can help out.

Yes you can overclock, But you need some good cooling to go with it :)

I'm just looking for a card to last me untill next year that can let me play BF2 better than on low. As the card i have now is only a 5700le. I have about £150 to spend.

I'm going away for a few days so, i might not reply.

Don't get the 6800le. Go for just the plain 6800. LE mean lame edition.

You can't OC it to GT speeds, the GT has GDDR3, you will never get a 6800nu that fast.
