Hey I currently have a Powercolour ATI 9800 Pro 128mb graphics card
and am going to lightly upgrade it with least expense possible.
my system:
Abit NF7-S rev 2
AMD 2500+ clocked @ 2.3Ghz 223fsb I think or around
9800 pro
seagate 7200.8 250gb sata hard drive

was thinking the 6600 GT or what about a X1600 pro?

cheers.

stay with ATI, much better image quality. The X800 XT PE is a good
choice, or the 850.

It's approximately $1.80 to the pound, so GB £70 = approximately US $126.02
