Anyone able to provide a link to where I could buy it cheap? IIRC these used to be around $100, but the only one I saw after two hours of looking was $300.
Why are you buying AGP?

Because it's a good card, even by today's standards. Not shelling out 2k for a decent gaming system. Thanks for the link.
Just save your cash and get a new CPU/motherboard.

Thanks for the link.[/QUOTE] You do realize that you can build a good gaming PC for $500 right? You're idea of buying a 3850 because you don't wanna spend $2,000 is ludicrous.
A "good" video card costs more than the 3850 anyhow. So I don't think it matters.
No. A $100 4870 would kick its ass. So would the GTS 450, GTS 250, GTX 260, 5770, and maybe 4850. [editline]08:48PM[/editline] All of which are less than the 3850.

Just get a new motherboard and CPU. Get a new GPU later.
flagged a few malicious posts, moving on now
[highlight]Brace for irony.[/highlight] [sp] Holy shit it happened[/sp] Anyways the 3850 is the best AGP card you can ever get if you really are happy with your current (probably single core p4/sempron) setup, then be my guest and spend it on the 3850. Otherwise, save up some cash and but a mobo+CPU. Preferably from AMD so you can get more bang for the buck at that price.
