Shadow Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 I don't know if this is old news, but I just found out that you can get an ATI X1950 Pro with 512MB GDDR3 memory for the AGP bus. This could save some of us a bit of dosh as you won't need to upgrade a motherboard/ processor to have a relatively new high end card in your rig.

Okie Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 I bought the Sapphire version of this card about a month ago and am very pleased with it indeed. I upgraded from an X800pro to the X1950pro 512mb. It has made a great improvement for me and I'm sure others would see gains as well. For $229.00 US it is the least amount of money I've spent on a vid card to date. Well worth the money if you are waiting for BOB to release and mature a few months before dropping the cash on a full upgrade to pci express etc. My set up is as follows: K8N Neo2 FX57 2gig pc3200 Audigy2 2 WD120gb drives Raid0 I'm not sure wear you would draw the line on processor speed as far as good enough or not. I intend to stick with the agp for awhile yet so it was a good deal for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Identical to my set-up but I can't afford such a expensive video card . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
