I have upgraded all other components for my computer except the 8500LE card!
I'm not a hard core gamer but Quake 3, Serous Sam and a few others. The 8500
seems to do a good job but the hand writing is on the screen. What are some
recordation for an up grade

Anything from a Radeon 9500 up will give you full DX9 support and a
performance boost. The best bang for the buck right now are the older 9500
Pro and 9700 Pro, which perform about the same as the 9600 Pro and 9800 Pro,
but cost less. Another option is to get a 9700 or 9800 non-pro and overclock
to Pro speeds. You should be able to get a very competent card in the
$200-300 price range. You can keep up with the latest hardware, drivers and
reviews at www.rage3d.com
