Hi guys,

A customer of mine need a new motherboard and her AGP card wont fit in as the only 478 board that my supplier does is PCI-E.

She doesn't want to spend much but does want to be able to play newish games albeit on low graphics settings.

Budget is £60-£70, what would you recommend?

For that kind of money from ATI you'd be looking at a x1650. Which is, in a word, lousy.

I'd be looking at a Nvidia 7600gt. These go for around the budget quoted.

Unfortunately Wolfie, that card won't fit as the motherboard connecton is PCI-E and the card you've quoted is AGP.

Good find mate, but alex pipped it with his 7600GT, its a step up for a few pennys more.

I also already ordered before i saw this... :o

I'm not all that hot on GFX cards. Want to make sure they get the best for their money.

Cheers guys!

And why not, as Barry Norman is accredited with saying but never did.
The old adage still applies at the end of the day. You only get what you pay for.
