    I'm only on a low budget of about £60 (ex p&p, inc VAT) and wish to purchase a new AGP graphics card for a little gaming (nothing too brilliant). My current card is a Sapphire Radeon Atlantis 9100 and to be honest... it's :swear: . I know for £60 it's not going to be brilliant. I was thinking I quite like this: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ProductInfo.aspx?ProductID=11369&GroupID=1226

    I'm also not bothered whether it's ATi on nVidia, I like both.

    My Current System Spec is:

    Athlon 64 3000
    512mb PC3200
    200GB SATA Hard Drive
    Pioneer DVR-109 DVD-RW (broken at the moment)

    Thanks, Thomas

    Yep, the card will do great in your rig.
    A big improvement over the 9100 for sure.
    Good choice :good:

    That's a good choice for the money. You won't be able to play something like Doom 3 with the eye candy cranked up, but you should be able to play it at 1024x768 (at least in my experience and taste).
