I think I'm going to go with the x1650XT card...

What do you guys think I should get for RAM? I don't understand the dual channel thing........

 

I wouldnt worry too much about dual channel.

Just get DDR ram thats all

 

IF it has PCI-E, it doesn't necessary means it has DDR2, it could be DDR to... You should know, coming from a .... (DFI nF4 Ultra-D + 7800GT) ...

Dual Channel explained here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-channel

Just buy a 2x1Gb Pc3200 kit, almost every kit is dual channel and it doesn't matter when you put a dual channel kit in a non compatible mobo, it'll just work, but then in single channel.

And the highest AGP card is a x1950pro...

 

it does if it uses an intel chipset...

 

It doesnt....I have an ASUS P5GD1. PCI-E, Intel and yet its DDR.

 

ahh, that's only one chipset though, effectively all others use DDR2 or or can use both...

to be certain, eh can check w/ CPUz
