Looking for a good, yet affordable video card

    Hi,


    after testing my computer with 3dmark 2003, and noticed that my scores are pretty poor. So with all the new games coming out, I figured I should upgrade my video card.

    I don't have that much money to afford a card thats around $300, so any good cards that can provide great performance but at a reasonable price? my limit is anything under $160


    Here are my system specs:


    AMD Athlon XP 2100+ (1.7ghz)
    MSI Kt7 Turbo
    Visiontek Geforce 3 64mb AGP
    Maxtor 20gb HDD

    Hopefully I will be posting a FX5200 card review soon that will be compared against other Radeon boards and older GeForces currently in a similar price range... I haven't finalized testing but it'd seem that the old Ti4200 is a winner for boards above the $100 mark if your budget doesn't allow you to go for a Radeon 9500 Pro board (the best value your money can get right now).
