    Default Time to upgrade my GFX?

    Hi first post in this area, so hello.

    Well I have had my X800 XT PE for about two years now, and yeah it runs current games pretty well, and the M2TW demo runs fine. But for upcoming FPS titles such as COD3 I thought that I might have to upgrade my GFX card (and motherboard if needed). But I would prefer to stay AGP if I can.

    Heres the site I usually get me'gear from http://www.pricespy.co.nz/cat_16.html

    From their range can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Help would be appreciated so thank you

    This has been hotly discussed at length, the conclusion being that it's a fight between the 7600GT (everybody else) and the 7800GS (me) for the hottest AGP card.

    Not sure you're going to see a huge jump from the card you already have, though. You might want to consider saving for a new PCI-E setup at this point.

    Ah I see, looks like it's going to be another expensive upgrade to a PCI MB and Card.

    Be sure to send me your x800xt PE for "proper disposal".
