looking for new Video card

To find out more about your computer than you would ever want to know, download Everest Home Edition: Everest.

Your best bet is either going to be the 7600GT or the X1950 pro would be a much better card if you can afford it. I advise against Futureshop because their prices are quite a bit higher than internet sources such as newegg.com or tigerdirect.com. You will be looking about $125-140 for the 7800GT and about $170-185 for the X1950 pro. Depending out your power supply you may have to upgrade that as well.

the X1950 pro lookss pretttyy damm nicee. but i dont really have 200 to lay down on a video card.. im looking more towards something to compete with the 7600GT.. is there a big difference in performancewith the X1950 pro and the X1950.. because there is a big difference in price
