I am after a new AGP videocard to replace my Nvidia FX5500 which is not performing as good as i need. I have been looking at several models including the 6600GT and the 7600gs. Has anyone had one of these cards and if so would they recommend either. i cannot afford to go for a high end card and these have been recommended to me with the 7600gs being my first choice.
Thanks in Advance FS_Pilot

Definately go with the 7600GT all the way. Between Pixel Shader 3, HDR, and improoved RAM chips its the better card.
Cheers

Cameron I am referring to the 7600GS not the 7600GT which is a slightly less expensive card by about $A100
Thanks FS_Pilot

7600GS is faster than 6600GT.
Notice that he needs an AGP card.

I know, the PCIe ones are cheap, but the AGP versions (if any are available) will probably be so high priced it's not viable.
Maybe the 7800GS will become affordable.
