    All you would have to do is unscrew like 2 screws, write down the name of the board and screw it back up.

    geforce 7800gtx is a waste, you could get the 7800gt lite for like 300 dollars us, i think that's like 175 pounds? (not too sure on conversion)

    Device Manager?

    On the start menu, right click 'My Computer'. Click on the Hardware tab, then the device manager button on top.

    right now ive got a couple of options.....x600 doesnt seem to be good , but ive got some other cards am considering to buy:-

    Sapphire RADEON 9600 256MB (very low price!)
    --------------------
    Powercolor X800GT 256mb DDRIII PCI-E (its kinda expensive so theres a small chance of me buying this , but i wanna know if any of the other ones in this list are better / good as than this one)
    ---------------------
    RADEON X700 LE 128MB PCI-E
    --------------------
    PowerColor ATI Radeon 9800SE 256MB +TV OUT (very low price)
    -------------------
    PALIT ATI Radeon 9800PRO 256MB TV-OUT,128BIT,DVI
    ------------------
    POWERCOLOR 9800PRO 128MB 256bit DDR 256 BIT AGP RETAIL
    -----------------
    SAPPHIRE RADEON 9800PRO 256MB 256Bit AGP (expensive , small chance of buying , need to know if theres much diff between 128bit and 256)

    those are the ones in my list for now , but ive got a question...i know the radeon x800 is very expensive , but ive found Powercolor X800 GT 256MB thats for $219 , and thin ive found RADEON X800XT 256MB DVI, VIVO AGP that costs more than $500 , so i wanna know wats the diff betwen these 2?
    also plz give me ur opinions on wich of these should i get
    also keep in ur mind am not spending more than $220...


    thanks

    ghaha ppl. If he had a geforce fx card before he must have agp. The x600 is a bad card. A 9600pro with 256mb runs slower than a 128mb 9600pro (slower mem clocks). A good price for a 9600xt would be something like 90$ and not 190$. 9800pro's with 256mb are still good cards. You could buy one for around 130$. Btw never buy a 128bit 9800 card. They have the same lay out as a 9500pro and are much slower than 256bit 9800s. If i were you i'd buy a 6800le for around 130$ and try to unlock it's pipes to 16x6. Then you have a cerd that runs 6800gt/ultra speeds. You need a good power supply though. I'll add you on my msn.
