Anyway, it's ASUS P4SD-VX. It's support all AGP based video card. So you need to let us know what range of video card you want, and budget. Are you just looking for replacement for your existing broken video card? Or you want to improve your gaming experience. For the latter case, it would recommend changing monther/cpu/ram all together. Merely upgrading your video card while still using APG and DDR ram is quite limiting. It's a waste if you intent to invest in an expensive APG card, cause it won't be usable if you upgrade your system next time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I've mentioned before, with AGP, you can't go very far. We'll need your pc spec as well in order to recommend one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

herenistarion 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2008 We need to kno a bit more like the manufacturer of the motherboard, and your power supply. From what i can see you motherboard supports AGP. there are two types of graphic cards. AGP, and PCI-E. PCI-E is compatible with newer motherboards and by far way better than AGP. Infact, AGP is not really being produced anymore, its extinct. So my first suggestion for you is that you upgrade your motherboard, but i think if its that old to the point where you can't use a PCI-E video card, i would chuck it out and get another computer because the investment isn't worth it.With AGP, if you have roughly atleast a 450W power supply, you can support a NVIDIA 7600 GT. I don't think there are any 8800 series cards that support AGP. You will be two generations behind, but should be ok to run pretty much everything made before 2008, and anything made in 2009 at low settings (referring to games). Its roughly $50 U.S and newegg has good deals. Infact you might even be able to get a bundle deal from newegg for a new card, new power supply for under a 85$ U.S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xboxrulz1405241485 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2008 It doesn't matter what type of RAM your system runs since the RAM that the graphics have are RAM that are bolted onto the card, only the graphics card can access the RAM integrated to that card.xboxrulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
