When I purchased this ati9500pro directx9 card several years ago it was
considered the best and eventually reached benchmark status which other cards were always compared to and is still considered a very solid card which it allows me to play any of the current genre of games such as BF2 and Farcry etc and supports 1200x1600 resolutions.
Since I know many of the regulars here owed this card, my question concerns
replacing it with the current generation of cards or hang in there until
I build a new system with x16 pci slots or replace it with a AGP card such as the
6800gt or x800 and if so.. since I have no way of comparing my card side-by-side,will I notice a vast improvement in game graphics?

ok,I'll ask it slightly differently without all the unnessesary dribble :)

What current AGP cards should be considered to replace my radian ati9500pro and will I
notice a vast improvement visually using a high-end (vp201) LCD monitor..in other word,what have I been missing in farcry and bf2?
