BrianG · **Need new video card for PC -** 01.22.2008, 09:14 PM

Poo. Started up the computer and the video was all messed up. Tried cleaning and reseated everything and no luck. Computer boots fine with no errors, no the issue must be with one of the RAMDACs or something.

Was running an old ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (128MB RAM). Happened to have a REALLY old Nvidia Geforce4 Ti 4400 that still works, so that's in here for now.

So, now looking for a new video card that's at least as good as the ATI card. Don't do too much gaming anymore, but would be nice to run some of the less GPU intensive newer games as well as what I already have. What's the best bang for the buck out right now? Looking to spend about $200 or less. Gotta be AGP (on an older Athlon64 socket 754 mobo).

Any ideas?
