Upgrade for x800 pro

[jonzer12]

Hello All,

I have been out of loop with hardware for a while but am looking for some video card upgrade suggestions as I just bought a new mobo/cpu. Currently I am running a Asrock 774dual-vsta mobo with E4300 running at 2.5 GHZ. I have 1.5gb pc3200 and a AGP X800pro card. I spend 700 bucks on this card a few years back and its showing its age. What is my best bet for under 300 bucks canadian? (approx 260 US dollars). I am looking at only PCI-E cards.

Thanks.

You can get an X1950Pro for $170 USD and that should tide you over until you can save enough cash to get a D3D10 card in late summer (by which time the market will be flooded with them).

I would suggest this EVGA Geforce 7950GT PCI-E for $299.99 CAD plus shipping.

260.00$ u.s. dollars? = x1950xt
I would recommend the 320mb 8800gts for 274.99 with free Call of Duty 2, but I dont think your mother board is working with that card .(yet)?
