Best Value AGP 4x card right now?

OK, time to let you in on the secrets:

1.) A 9800SE is not really a 9800, but rather an updated version of the 9500 non-pro.
2.) A 9800 with 128-bit memory patway is not really a 9800, but an updated version of the 9500 Pro.
3.) It's more important to have a faster graphics chip and faster graphics memory than to have more graphics memory.

Your card is faster than a 9800SE. It might not display DX9 features, but it will provide better frame rates.

If you wanted a noticeable increase in framerates, you'd have to go with at least a Radeon 9700. 9700 Pro and 9800 Pro are better.

Those are old cards and might be available for around $100 if you search hard enough. If not, the GeForce 6600GT is a decent card for around $150.
