    Well it will be being by the graphics card you have now.

    It all depends on how much you want to spend as to what you get.

    Nah, apparantly you can get an AGP version of a decent ATi card http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...=56&subcat=403

    But it's probably better spending £60 or something on a 7600GT.

    Hello,

    Was just about to comment on the poor choice of cards they are suggesting - Okay the cards you've put forward are all AGP 8x ... do you really think that a 4x port is going to deal with that at all well, its the same type of bottleneck as sticking a core2 quad in a machine with PC133 RAM in. If the mobo only supports AGP 4x I wouldnt really recommend spending more than £25 on a card as you are hardly going to see any benefit in doing so.

    Kind Regards,
