My radeon 9700 Pro is failing after 5 years of service. I use to do gaming, but now I DO NOT do any gaming. I will put together a brand new rig next spring, but I need to replace my AGP card. now Looking on new egg and willing to spend around $100.
I'd like to try a Nvidia based card. I think the most important thing is enough stream unit/pipes etc to push all of that Photoshop data through. (I'm not too up on the latest Video card technology terms-its been a while.) I'd rather have a fatter pipe than gobs of video ram I don't need. I'd like at least 256mb of memory.
Its all running on a ABIT IC7-G with 2 GB Ram and a P4 2.4Gz CPU.
Please suggest. I looked on newegg and found about 30 cards...but not sure where to start.
