I'm looking to upgrade my videocard in the near future but I'm just wondering whether it would be worth it.
Currently, my system specs are AthlonXP 1700+, 256DDR, GF2 Ti, EP-8KHA+ (EPoX).
However, I'm wondering will buying a new Radeon 9700Pro or GF4Ti 4600 be worth the money or will it be bottlenecked by some other part of my system? I know my mobo can only handle AGP 4x but is my CPU too slow or something as well? I'd rather get a Radeon than a GF4 (speed, DX9 etc) but would it really run any faster on my system (or will it run at the same speed because of CPU or something)? Should I just wait till next year and upgrade the whole system?
