[QUOTE="Raven, post: 2560439, member: 558368"] Hey now, don't underestimate the Barton Core. It's old, but still packs a punch. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] I've gone through everything from being outbid on 7800gs' on ebay to putting out $195 for a Winfast 7600gt ([B]The[/B] AGP card to own). But in the end, I think you're right. I don't have the hardware to make good use of it and since 1024x768 is "high res" in my book I hardly need more than what I originally planned. (Yes, Jmac, I know calling 1024 x 768 "high res" probably gave you a seizure, sorry.) Anyway I ordered the EVGA 7600 GS off newegg. It's coming soon. bballrrt06: That was pretty useless. I'm getting an Nvidia card because they have better Linux drivers and usually run cooler. AJ: Sorry, no need for it. I got a GF3 TI 200 in my rig right now, the other PC has a 6200 that's been unlocked to an underclocked 6600, and the third machine is better off with a PCI or ISA video card. =) [/QUOTE]
