^ thats why i suggested the 9200 128 MB ddr cause its pci

 

thats the highest ati that i've found in pci edition

 

there is an nvidia 5600fx 128mb DDR pci if i remember correctly

Well, the processor and RAM might be a bit of a bottleneck, as well as the PCI slot, the video card notwithstanding. Honestly I'd recommend waiting a while until PCI Express comes out, saving your money until then. Then buy a whole new system. With the new PCI Express, AGP will become obsolete. Until then, if you really need a replacement, go with what one of these fellas said. I'd also check www.pricewatch.com as well as www.newegg.com. Well...that's about all I have to say. Hope it helped!

Well, your first problem is running that dang Celeron. *chuckle* I work with those dang things at work, and I've learned to despise the Celeron. Not as much as I despise those old Cyrix CPU's, but pretty dang close. I have considerably more service calls concerning performance issues from customers using our Intel Celeron powered computers than I do from the customers running AMD Athlons.ATI chipsets used to be a terrible choice, but that seems to have changed. Going on the advice of a trusted friend, I bought this Radeon 9000 with 128 megs of RAM. I haven't had any problems with it. And from what I've been hearing, that seems to be the norm. ATI seems to have finally got it together and made a quality product.At anyrate, I'm happy to hear you are working out your probs. Shoot, we all go thru them from time to time. *chuckle* My system has been getting increasingly unstable. It may be time for me to do a clean install soon. *cringe*
