Looking to buy a new graphics card.

Hello. I'm looking to buy a new graphics card for under $300. The one I have my eye on is the Radeon All-In-Wonder X800 XT for about $273 from here. I just want to see if anyone can find a better deal.


ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder X800 XT
Memory Amount - 256MB
Core Speed - 500MHz
Fill Rate - 8000 MTexels/s
Memory Bus - 256-bits
Memory Speed - 500MHz
Memory Bandwidth - 32.00 GB/s
Vertex Pipelines - 6
Pixel Pipelines - 16
Pixel Shader Engines - 16

 

Is this PCI-Xpress or AGP?

You should be able to get a 7800GT or 7800GS for the same price roughly (won't have the same capture or TV features though).

it depends on what u wanna do with it, for gaming an x1600, x850 or a 7800gt would be the best.

AGP only and i kind of would like to have the tv capture features tho they are not essential.

 

The best video cards with capture features are the All In Wonder.

The best AGP video card is the 7800GS.

It's up to you which you think suits you better.

If you're a gamer, I'd go for the 7800GS.

If not, or only occassional, I'd go for the ATI.
