New Graphic Card

[masteratt]

Hey.
I have NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900XT (128MB) graphics card (the rest of my PC is great..Pentium 4, 3ghz and so on)

And I feel the need to update my graphics card since it's falling behind on keeping up with games.
But I truely hate having to look for the best deal so can anyone help me out?
What graphics card should I buy? (I need something that can at least handle HDR and sometihng that can eaily run BF2 on best quality.

Thanks.

look for the nVidia 7800GTX. Its like the most powerful card you can get at the moment, but its really expensive. You could get the 7800GT, which is alot less expensive and apparently is close in power. Im going to be getting the 7800GT card very soon, when the price drops a bit.

This is the cheapest you can get the card for, but its all in Australian $'s. I guess give google a go, see what you can find.

i have 2 nvidia 6800 graphic cards running on SLi... which is a waste considering i could have just gotten a 7800. It works great though. Just a single 6800 could handle nearly everything i threw at it.

YOU HAVE AGP SO DON"T LISTEN TO THE CUBE! they are PCI -e cards.

Get a Geforce 6800GS AGP or a Geforce 7800GS AGP
or
a Radeon X850XT AGP

personally I'd go with the Nvidia geforce parts as they have shader model 3
Also you could try ebay to get a Geforce 6800GT or ULTRA (more powerful than a 6800GS but a little weaker than a 7800GS)

I am lagging behind with my FX 5900XT as well, but its good enough in the meantime.
