    Question Can anyone suggest a good budget AGP graphics card? - around £50 ($100)

    Can anyone suggest something?

    I know it is a limited budget but I really want to get the best for my money.

    Thanks,

    Pete

    What type of user are you? Graphics designer, gamer, light gamer, surfer, office worker, etc.

    Do you want performance or quality or both?

    What are your system specs?

    I'm probably somewhere between a light-gamer and a gamer.. I want to be able to play something like Doom 3, but I'm not bothered about it looking perfect, if you know what I mean. I can handle a card that doesn't have the highest framerate.

    So in that sense, I guess I want a bit of both of performance and quality.

    My system specs are:

    P4 3ghz
    1gb RAM
    ASUS P5V800-MX motherboard (AGP, PCI, PCIe x1 - not x16!)

    Thanks,

    Peter

    I'd suggest the Radeon 9550 256MB AGP 8x. I don't know about your price range though. Between 50 pounds and 100 dollars? The 9550 is about $130 CDN. If it's out of your league, I'd suggest a 9200 128MB. I've played Doom 3 with both but my GeForce 6600GT tops them all by a mile
