Curse my fucking AGP slot! This card looks like a damn good value.


Oh and ATI cards sucks balls. My Radeon HD 2600 is AGP slotted...its the best one I'm gonna get with this AGP slot and I hate it to death.

 

[Urza]

AGP slot

Sounds like you need a new computer.

 

[xJonny]

Or a 3850 AGP

 

[Opium]

Just get an 8800GT. I just bought one and I'm loving it. Brilliant card and cheap as chips compared to what you get out of it.

There are AGP X1900 series cards, possible X1950XT. They aren't DX10, but they are much more powerful than the 2600.

I can run Crysis at 1280x1024 with all settings High + sun ray hack - shadows and PP on medium. Can max out CoD4.

[xJonny]

The Radeon 3850 is DX10 and there is an AGP version available, i.e. at http://www.tek-heads.co.uk/s/product?product=608644 and performs better

X1950XT overclocked to 695/1008 from 621/900. (I had to up the voltage from 1.45 to 1.55 and have an aftermarket cooler.)

I'm still running a 6600GT, shows how much I actually use my PC for gaming these days.

 

[superkrm]

yeah im still sticking with my 6800GS

there is nothing out there that makes me want to spend 180 to 200 for a new video card right now.

Im playing a lot of indiegames and they run fine.

I rather spend that money modding a wii.

I wish they quit trying to push graphics and work on gameplay more like more of the indie developers, but that would
require gamers to change themselves as well so it would be profitable.

I hate u graphics whores.

just kidding

You haven't played Call of Duty 4 or Bioshock, have you?

 

[juggernaut911]

i wanna play both SOOOOOOO bad!!!!!! and oblivion and CS:S and Guild Wars!!!!!! still need to beat orange box.. .

 

[Renegade_R]

Shit I had no idea the 3850 came in an AGP flavour. I upgraded my ATI 9250SE back in October to the HD 2600 because I couldn't play Team Fortress 2 at 15fps

;

Then I get this 2600...I still play Team Fortress 2 at 15fps...just at a higher resolution.

@offtopic84: Yeah I did consider the X1900 AGP but it was out of my budget at the time. My budget was around $150 Canadian just to improve performance in Team Fortress. So the x1900 being $199 at that time didn't seem like a good purchase to me.

Oh well...time for a new computer...urgh

 

[yuyuyup]

at what point should I upgrade my single 7600GT SLI; should I get another 7600 to complete the SLI, or should I get a single other new card, or what ? And no, I can't think for myself

If another 7600GT is like $50?

 

[yuyuyup]

yeah, but would I be better off spending more to get a really good card and waiting to sli that later down the road ?

 

[Renegade_R]

Hence we have now taken a full circle...

 

[Lumstar]

I have a 7900GS, which is kind of ruined by an ancient Pentium D 805 that can't keep up. Medal of Honor Airborne gets rather odd framerates.

 

[Renegade_R]

I have a 7900GT...I put it in my new computer...then my wife took that computer and gave me this box...epic phail on my part.
