Being my first post I want to say what a good forum you guys run here, definitely the spot for high end info.
Ok, here's the deal, I have a $300 budget for a VC for the gaming rig I'm putting together. Can't spend more cuz I need to buy everything else too. I've been reading and reading about this card and that, but can't make a difinitive decision. Almost all of the cards in this price range have different amounts of clock speed, pipelines, and memory which make for a ton of comparisons and a huge headache!
So... if you:
1) had $300 dollars burning a hole in your pocket,
2) needed an AGP card,
3) weren't partial to ATI or nvidia,
4) only used your comp's full potential for gaming,
5) had a 4 year old Dell P780 Trinitron CRT monitor,
6) played FPS's and MMORPG's, and
7) needed to get it before your wife changed her mind,
Which Video Card would you get???
