Hi there

I have an Asus A7v333 mobo. AGP PRO 1.5v
My Radeon 8500 video card died
Any AGP PRO video cards recommended for this board?

Thankyou

You don't need an AGP Pro card. Any AGP-card will do. Which price class?

Up to approximately $220 US dollars or $300 Australian

Thanks very much

Darren

It is important to consider the CPU you have. It is unnecessary to choose a
card that is more powerful than your CPU can handle. I think an ATI Radeon
9800Pro will give you lots of gaming hours still.A Geforce 4 Ti will be an
upgrade from your Radeon 8500 as well, but not that powerful. If you don't
use your machine for gaming, I would get a cheap card. All those card
mentioned can be bought used.
Your next PC will have PCI Express graphics, so it's not wise to buy a very
powerful AGP card thinking that you can reuse it later.

Thanks very much for the advice.

I couldn't get a 9800 pro easily so I've opted for a cheap 9600XT

Thanks again

Darren
