Hey sam,

The best AGP graphics card you can get I would say would be a Geforce 7800gs (Amazon.co.uk: Used and New: EVGA e-GeForce 7800 GS CO - Graphics adapter - GF 7800 GS - AGP 8x - 256 MB GDDR3 - Digital Visual Interface (DVI) - TV out), but these cost around $160, but well worth it.

However, for that price range, you would be looking at ATI, possibly a 9550 (*FREE SHIPPING* Sapphire ATI Radeon 9550 AGP8X 256MB DDR TV-Out DVI Lite Box).

Thanks all.

That 7800gs looks huge, but the specs are outstanding. Im sure this will play all high end games? am i right?

The 9550 however dosnt look as large but will it be able to play high end games? oblivion, Medevil total war 2? etc?

Powercolor Radeon X1650 256MB AGP DDR2 - Aria Technology


I found this card, will it be able to play all high end games? Respectably well around 50 FPS?


Or this

XFX GeForce 7600GS 512MB DDR2 - Aria Technology


Will that be able to run high end games around 50 FPS?

The 7600gs is pretty good. What high-end games are you talking about?
