I've got a Sapphire 9800SE AGP and it works quite well, I can't complain.
Thinking about an improvement I was looking around for something more
powerful and found the Sapphire Radeon X800 256MB AGP for 247€ (not sure
if it's the best price though).
The question is: there is a difference from 9800SE to X800 enough to
justify the cost?
 
the performance difference is enormous with these 2 cards. go to
www.tomshardwareguide.com to see a benchmark chart on the respective cards.
if you are into gaming then an x800 is a worthy investment if you have the
cash.. (too expensive for me tho!)

You mean http://www.tomshardware.com/ don't you? ;-)
The other link sent me nowhere, lol
Yes, I agree the price is a bit high (understatement), but I would like
to get something that can last for long.
Soon we will see only PCI-E graphic cards, or it's too early for this?
Another thing that makes me think for the upgrade is that the DVI output
of my 9800SE went ko after only 2 weeks and with the new graphic card I
could move back to DVI again.
 
oops, sorry about link....:-)
