Hi,

just wanted to know if this card is any good ATI Sapphire X1650 pro 512MB PCI-E. I bought this about 3 months ago with out really researching any graphic cards it was just one of the more expensive cards the shop had. I upgraded form a Geforce 7300SE or 6300SE(cant remember) 128mb which came standard with my computer. Is this a good card and was £99.99 (GBP) a good price for it ?

I use this card for surfing the web, watching movies and playing games online and off but not graphic intensive games only games like Redalert2, silenthill series and soulreaver series and if it matters I have a 1440x900 monitor.

I'm sure others might have some opinions. However, for being in England, the price doesn't sound bad for that card. For what you do, it should last you for a while. You would spend about 2-3 times more for the 8800gt, the current champ in price/performance category.
