I just upgraded my 9800 Pro (128 mb) to a X850Pro (256mb). Both are AGP. It indeed made a difference. I got mine for $279- $30 Mail in rebate from Best Buy. I was looking in the same price range but this card was nice. Not really sure if the $200 one would bw worth it. I was confused as well...

Well I ended up going by Best buy and found they have X850Pro for $254 after $30 rebate. A tad over budget but it should OC even better than the others :P Looks like AGP cards have the advantage here from my short research.

Thanks. I am leaning towards the pro. ATI or Sapphire ones seems to be one of the cheaper... http://www.envisioncs.net/store/item-detail.cfm?storeid=3&ID=50013 http://www.compuplus.com/i-ATI-Radeon-X...00-1002777~refer-pricegrabber.com.html

X800Pro and X800GTO are 2 of the cards I am looking at in the around $200 range (give or take $30). I have a 9800 (128mb) now which doesn't really cut it. I can play but need the vid upgrade (already have 1 gig ram). Adding a PCI-E MB leaves only enough for a ~$125 vid card which I am sure...

From what I have read the AGP can't be unlocked. I'll be posting a question about it and something else here shortly. Double check that thread
