hi

Havent got my head around the next gen cards yet :-/

I have a 9800 pro AGP at present ...

Is a 256MB RADEON X600 Pro any faster than the 9800 pro ? I see its a PCI
express, does that mean I would need a new mobo too ??

Thanks

Simon

No. I think it's based on the 9x00 series tech.

Yes, you would need a new motherboard.
