What is your budget?

I've a Ati Radeon 9800 pro, well together with my pre historic PC that doesn give the most beautiful graphics, sometimes it will manage medium lightning and low shadows, but most of the times it wont, but if u have a up to date PC then a 9800 pro will be worth the money, because the differences between the shadows will only be noticed from close up, as it my experience since my dad has a 6800 GS and the difference isn't that big at all, only his card costed around 150 euro's more and he can play it somewhat smoother on high pinged server, but I usually avoid those servers

Drake, I have seen overpriced video cards, but never have I seen them being sold at six times their price. I don't know where you're buying them but please, don't.

Look for a nVidia 6800gs or an ATI 1600xt / 800gto2

Well, I'm sure it is, but isn't it Pci-e?

You got AGP, go for a Geforce 7800GS 256MB non oc, for around 250-300 €. Will fit for next generation games well enough.

btw: moved to Tech!!!

well not bad at all. Remember, you cant compare a AGP8x GPU with the PCI-E pendants. Geforce 7800GS is the fastest card for AGP atm, even if its pretty expenisve.

A cheap upgrade might be a 6600GT 256MB, but it will not fit requierments for upcomming games well enough.

Depends absolultey on how much you´ll spend and what you expect of your card. A good 6600GT 256MB will be outstanding compare to your, sry to say so, shitty 5700LE...

Nvidia AGP cards listed form FX5 series to 7series (weakes first):
FX5200 Ultra, FX5500, FX5700LE, FX5700, FX5900XT, FX5700 Ultra, FX5900, FX 5900Ultra, FX 5950 Ultra, 6200LE, 6600, 6800LE, 6600GT 128MB, 6600GT 256MB, 6800GT, 6800 Ultra, 7800GS

I bet you will Depending on your other system specs I suggest:
1024 x 768 (17" CRT)
all settings high, expect light on middle, shawods on middle

Anyways, trial n error, you must find your best solution

This one is closed because it will end up in a techwar like the other topics (waaah, dont go for 7800GS, get 8900 1024MB blah blah sutff)
