Default WTB: AGP Video Card

Right now I have a BFG FX5200 OC and I am looking for an agp upgrade. I don't want to spend a lot, I just want a more stable card that can run some better games.

Let me know what you have.

Not sure on a budget, just not expensive as I will be upgrading my whole system down the road.

Specs:
Intel Pentium 4 2.8ghz with Hyper-Threading
Intel 865 PERL motherboard
1GB RAM DDR 333 (upgradable to 4gb)
256 MB BFG FX5200 AGP graphics card

Look around, but honestly your computer is more in need of complete gutting, then replacing components. Turn it into a folder and start saving for a new build.

The ATI X8** series are very good cards! Something worth looking into!

I have a partially built system sitting in the case on my floor (my new build) All I need is a cpu, ram and a video card. But I want to give my current system a bit of an upgrade too.

Both cards will, but the x800/x850 series will outperform is by a lot.
