I resently fried my old 6800nu. I've had that card heavily overclocked and volt modded. I stopped working on me earlier tonight. I've tested the card out in a few different mobos to check if it is truely fried. Anyways...I have a problem. I have an older rig, about 2 years old and it has an agp slot. I resently purchased a laptop so I don't have the cash to build a new rig. This means I'm stuck purchasing a new agp card. I've done some research and the three cards that are in my price range are the 7800gs, X1950gt and the X1950pro.

Current setup:
p4 3.0ghz @ 3.8
intel 865pe pro mobo
antec 400W power supply
6800nu (dead)
1gb generic ram
2x 300gb seagate hdd
1x WD 120bg hdd

The computer is used primarly for gaming.

Which card would you recommend? All cards are roughly the same price and $20-30 isn't enough to make me lean towards one of the cards more than the others.

Thanks for the help,
Ben
