AGP Graphic card - need a replace

[0sir1s]

I have a old pc that's still runing AGP graphic cards, and my card (6800XT) just stop working.. So im looking for a new one that is better then my old one, and as far as got to see, i can buy a used ATI 2600PRO AGP or a used v9999GT (a renamed 6800GT).. Beetween those two, which one is better for gaming? and can you tell me your opinion about the HD3650 comparing to those one?

Asus P4S800

The 2600Pro and 6800GT are on fairly equal standing, though the 2600 will likely have a bit of an advantage in newer games. The 3650 is a little bit faster than the 2600Pro, but its main advantage is that it draws less power, and therefore runs cooler.

You may also consider looking for a used 3850. It'd be a bit more expensive, but you might be able to find a deal, and the performance would be a huge step up.

I would get the HIS H467Q1GHDAP Radeon HD 4670 1GB 128-bit DDR3 AGP 4X/8X HDCP it will be a great improvement.

+1 to that. I'm running a 7800GS that's dying on my old computer that is at my mate's, and that's the card I'm going to go for. it's 104.99 +2.99 shipping currently after mail-in rebate. That's pretty much what you'll find 'em for on eBay mostly.

You could get the same price from newegg now with rebate and a 2 year warrenty.

Yup Heatman, that's what I was referring to. I was just sayin that you will find them around that on eBay as well. I'd go the newegg route unless there was a really good deal. 2 year warranty is a good thing :)

+1 for the 4670. Its also nice to see no one making the "Upgrade to PCI Express" comments.

If I were you I would upgrade to PCI Express. :D

I had an HD3850 AGP in my last rig, upgraded from a 7800GS. The 3850 ran great, no problems whatsoever. It was way more expensive than the PCI-E version though.

I used a Radeon HD 3850 AGP 4X/8X It ran crysis fine, on medium settings with 1600X1200 :)
