Alright, well before I get started I have a Intel Pentium 4 2.4GHZ CPU, Radeon 9500 PRO/9700 128mb graphics card (thats what everest says), 768mb DDR PC3200 RAM, running on a Windows XP SP2 home edition and uhh... my mobo is a dell demension 4550 if that matters and my computer uses an AGP slot of graphic cards.
I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card (my price range is like 140 - 170$), but im not sure how good my current card now is, what current cards are good now and how much my computer will bottleneck the new cards.
The card I have now is actually doing decently well, It gets like 15-40fps on F.E.A.R (I think) depending on the settings, like 50 on WOW (think) depending on the settings. But I want more power.
How much more power are we talking exactly on the newer cards like 6600GS/GT, 6800GS/GT, X1950pro, X1650PRO and how much more fps will I generally get with these cards?
Will my computer bottleneck these cards too much?
Help will REALLY be appreciated, I'd like to know if this radeon card I got is outdated and how much.
