Best sub £150 Gfx card (AGP)

[wedge22]

My mate is building a new system comprising of SN45G v2 , 2500XP-M, 1 Gb Corsair 3200. Which gfx card would you guys suggest for this system.

nvidia 6600gt goes for about that, otherwise the old ati 9800 pro would be a good bet, both can be had around that price. some may say the 6800 le and take a chance he could unlock the extra pipes/shaders and overclock it to 6800 or gt speeds if he's lucky (very lucky to get gt i think).

Yeah, I'd say the 9800 Pro.

6600gt/6800le; if he can't get one of those a 9800pro

Thats the way...

i got my 6800le for less than £130 luckily i could unlock the pipelines to get 12x1 and 6vp, so i am a happy bunny,

in benchmark terms, i get 9400 with my set-up (3dmark03)
Barton 2500+ @ 2Ghz, 1Gb PC3200, A7V600

but i would go 6600gt if i were to choose again, purely because it can play back dvds properly, and play recent games decently as well!

Many places are now selling 6600GT's for £110 inc VAT

Which places?

[muddyfox470]

i do believe the sub £110 6600gts he is talking about are the pci-e ones

so as you are after agp, they will cost a bit more...
