Ok, my friend has a PC with the following specs:
Pentium 530 OC to 3.50 GHz
Gigabyte 8IPE775-G MB w/ AGP 8x
Radeon 9550 SE AGP 8
200 GB HD
350 Watt PS
1.0 GB DDR1 RAM
How should he upgrade. He has $200 to play around with. He was browsing thru the "Clearance" Section of Newegg and saw the Sapphire X800 GTO AGP, and the X800 XL 512 MB PCIe, and this with a cheap PCIe mobo with DDR1 Ram support fro $180. He also found numerous other cards. Should he switch to PCIe with a cheap mobo, or make his final AGP upgrade??? Please Help.
