The only thing you will need to do once you have the new AGP video card in
is to disable the onboard video in the BIOS.

depends what money you have but the very very very good cards ( use ebay or online to get better price)

1)x800XL 512MB (its a beast of a card)--plus it is ati which i like (drools)

2) the gefore 7800GTx is very very fast but too much money really


There are more cards on the market try http://www.sapphiretech.com/ or http://www.nvidia.com/page/home


but for value for money x800 XT or x800 PE

the gefore 6800 gt or 6800 ultra are amazing I have the x800pro which I have overclocked loads but it only has 12 pipelines ( not that it makes a huge problem becasue the arctic cooler and 540/540 overclock I have running helps loads). But it is best not to over clock so I would buy the X800PE or 6800 ultra for good soild value for money.That will last for ages and not bankrupt you.
