agp x1950xt going to buy plz read

[shaido7]

Hello,

I was looking at replacing my videocard with the new x1950xt agp. because i cant afford to upgrade to a whole new computer. What is best brand to buy and do you think there would be a big difference between my x800xt and the new x1950xt?

Which suppliers are you considering you prob have diffrent availability to me so let me know.
Also are you aware that it draws a lot of power so you need a decent powersupply.
And yea you will notice the diff alright.

Take heed of mactronix's warning about power requirements. The differences will be massive depending on the game and resolutions.

I don't know what brand of AGP X1950XT would be the best, but I know that the difference would knock your socks off.

Why do you think you're going to need an after-market cooler?

That PSU should be fine for that card.
