    I don't remember the 5500 being that great of a card.

    I'm not sure what benefit the mobo brings you, but I'd spend a little more on the latest generation of video cards, at least a GeForce 6600.

    I don't know anything about this particular card, but it is the cheapest AGP at NewEgg for $122. If nothing else, it buys you the latest Direct3D support.

    Breaky bought this one and said he loved it. It's also the card I am shooting for.

    Leadtek 6600 GT

    I have a 5500 in my Dell and it's great for graphics, but doen't do well on BFV.

    Yeah that 5500 was the one that came with this machine and my ati 9000 with 64Mb of out performed it by quite a bit in bf42 and bfv. So I got rid of it
