I've got a 2GHz box (512MB RAM, new HDs, TI4400, AGP 4x slot) and I'm wanting to update the graphics to something a little better. It's an old Gateway 2GHz box with RAMBUS memory.
This is a secondary machine (for the kids) and I know it isn't worth investing in. But, for ~80 I can nearly triple video performance. At one time the Leadtech TI4400 was state-of-the-art, that is no longer the case.
The two cards I'm considering are:
1 - ATI 9800 Pro (~$79 at NewEgg)
2 - Nvidia 6600GT ($ tbd)
Which would you recommend? Others? I'm not inclined to spend more than $100.
