I just ordered a new Dell 2405FPW display to replace my old Dell 19inch LCD, and am beginning to wonder if it'd be worthwhile to upgrade my Radeon 9800 Pro AIW at the same time.
It's on an older board with AGP-only, running an Athlon 64 3200 cpu. I'm hoping to put off a system upgrade for as long as possible, and with my XBox 360 getting a lot of use I really only play Age 3 and WoW from time to time.
Do you guys think it would be worth spending around 200 now to upgrade the 9800? Or is the jump from the 9800 to an Nvidia 6800 not really worth the extra money. Just looking for something that will hold me over to a dual-core upgrade in the fall/winter. Being able to do dual DVI would be a bonus.
What do you think?
