This overclocked version of the x1300 doesn't appear on any of the Tom's Hardware VGA charts.

I bought the x1300, but I haven't opened the box yet. Can anyone advise whether this is a good deal? Is the x1300 XGE better than the x850 pro? Is it a generation past the x850?

My main purpose for buying this card would be to upgrade my integrated graphics. Assuming the rest of my system is ok, is this a decent card for MTW2?
X850Pro is far away better card then X1300. X1300 is newer generation, but X850Pro is peak of the previous.

7600GT is best for AGP. 7800GS is slightly faster but cost much much more and it's not worth.

~ rank of AGP cards. Not 100% accurate, but mostly is.
