Ok, Im trying to figure out the certain type of VC to get... I know that I have 2 PCI and posibly 1 AGP slot(s) free. What I really need is a VC that can be either a PCI or AGP slot type... Either GeFroce FX - the local FutureShop and BestBuy have a wide selection of both geforce and raideon cards. I am really leaning towards Raideon, since Ive heard that geforce hasnt produce anything of significant value recently. I have an Asus CUW-AM/MEW-AM 2.07 according to the belarc and that other one (SiS or something) advisors... One says that I can upgrade with a new card the other says no I cant... Why this is, I have no idea. Anyway, should I use the force? Or should I go to my cousins "dark side" and use a raideon?

I Have used both and I'm equally happy with both. My most recent purchase was a 9800pro because of support with HL2

I to have a video card...based on what was on sale at frys... wait and watch your card will appear like magic....for most appliacations you can get a hi end last year card for a fractin of wht the latest card costs. Much more bang for buck.
I have a papa nvida 3 card that runs BR 1942, halo, call of duty, and every other game I can think of right now.

When it stops running games smoothly...then Im sure frys or one of the other stores will have a sale on a card that will run whatever game.
