I am purchasing a new graphics card and do not have much money for it and my friend got a really nice one that is not that old for 185$ but now I can get it for 160$ so I wanted to get your opinions for it and see if you guys know of any better cards in the same price range. Can't wait to hear your guys comments.
Well obviously a 9800 would be a little overpowered for certain systems. But I'm running one on a 4 year old pc with AGP 4x and it's teh secks :lol:
The interface is PCI Express x16 System Specs: 3.2 GHz Pentium 4 Processor w/ HT Technology (The processor number thingy is 640.) 1 GB of DDR Ram 250 GB SATA Hard Drive Currently I have a PCI Express x16 128 MB ATI x300 graphics card and wish to upgrade to something more powerful. I mainly play WoW (World of Warcraft) and Counter Strike: Condition Zero. I currently can run BF2 but it is sort of laggy on medium and wish to get something that will be able to run it smoother.

I'd say go for the x800 for 180...thats probly best. Outperforms the 6800gs at higher resolutions. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814142052
I'd say not the 9800, X800GTO is a bit better for the price, and if you cannot scrape up the extra 20$, go for a 6600GT. after looking at that 6800GS though that isn't too bad... bit of a toss up given that.
^no they dont. Get the x800gto if you want to unlock pipelines - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814142052 Get this if you dont - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814130267 If you can unlock the extra pipelines in the x800 it will be better than the 6800gs in current games. The 6800GS is better than a stock x800gto, the 6800 is more future proof but not by much as niether will support dx10.
