Hi Everyone I'm new to this forum. My graphics card has been acting up latley I think, when opeing a full page with alot of animation the screeen will turn off for say 2-5 seconds then tun back on, I also have alot of very small dot like things all voer my screen, I know it is not my monitor becuase I've had 3 different monitors and its all the same. So i'm thinking video card. My new monitor is Samsung 2253LW, so I think I need a nicnew card so things can start lookin good on my new monitor. Neways I just want an AGP 8x one, Considering thats the port I have, right now my video card is a Nvidia Geforce 3 ti200 I believe, over 6-7 years old, time for a new one for sure! I know my computer cna handle a good one, Its got a cooler master 500w PS AMD athlon 2800 1Gb ram, I mostly need the video card for just regular computer stuff, I play some CS (the older one) and I would like to watch nice DVD's that would look good also. So the real question is can anyone tell me the best video card that I can buy for under $100 bucks, I don't wanna go to cheap I want just the best one under $100 or even $100? Please let me know ASAP, this video cards goin as we speak!!! Thanks Alot, Dan
 
Thanks guys! I looked at the 6800xt, Is that a good card? Also which card is the best one for my budget, cna anyone find me an exact one? Thanks Alot
 
I used to have that exact card, it was a fantastic thing. Its miles better than that GeForce 3 you have.
 
Thanks everyone, I might have found some even better cards, not sure though I heard that the 7800GS is good. Here it is, might bid on it, let me know what you think:

Well let me know what you guys think,What do you think is the best? I might narrow it down to 1 of these 3. Everyones help is greatly appreciated!!
 
I ended up buying one. Had Nvidia but got a Radeon, saw it had all good reviews. Visiontek ATI Radeon x1600xt 256mb GDDR3 128 bit core clock 590mhz memory clock 1380 mhz also had lifetime warranty, $76.98 USD brand new and shipped, did i just get a pretty good card for what i need it for, or did i get a crapper? let me know guys, thanks for ur help!
