Well if you want to play the latest games, then you can stop thinking about AGP cards as they are to slow, and start thinking about PCI-e.

What is your budget? The best AGP card out there is the Gecube x1950xt, followed by the nVidia 7900 (I think?).

Tell us your budget so we can pick the best card, and your PC specs as well.

thanks for your quick reply.

my machine is:
dell dimension 4600
3.0 ghz processor
1.5gb ram
400watt powersupply

screen is only 15inch running at resolution 1024x768 (i will keep the same resolution)

i have a AGP slot. so i cannot do much about it can i apart from get a new motherboard which i cant do.

so easiest is to buy a AGP graphics card.

ideally i wud spent about £50 but for a decent card i wud spend max £100.

so ye £100.

so plz recommend lots which you guyz think are good.

Thanks for helping
