Hi All,
The graphics card in my rather aging system is starting to give some trouble, and most likely needs to be replaced. It's a Radeon 9800 PRO and I must say that it served me pretty well for the last 4+ years.
The rest of the system is an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ CPU, Giga-byte K8NSNXP mobo, and 1GB RAM.
I'm not planning on buying a whole new rig just yet, so for now I'm looking for a suitable replacement AGP card that will last me for the next year, tops.
The 'Best Graphics Card for the Money' articles recommend the Radeon HD 2600 XT as a good AGP graphics card. Would this do? Or would it be overkill in this system?
Any advice on this would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
S
