8800gt by far the 4670 is quite a bit more powerful the 4650 due to higher clock speeds and use of ddr3 memory and even it is slower then the 8800gt by a good margin.
[QUOTE="theragu40"]If you're stuck with AGP, then I believe the best card available is an ATI 3850. Pretty sure. Someone correct me if I'm mistaken.teddyrob
HD 3850AGP card is pretty good for an old system. That's the best I've seen and is widely available.
It's not even really that expensive most places...~$100 from what I can tell, which isn't a *terrible* deal for a card that's of that quality.
[QUOTE="Sordidus"]I think the best agp card is the HD3870 AGP.nVidiaGaMer
No way its all about the 6800Ultra agp. 16 pixel pipelines and ultra high bandwidth all for $50 on eBay plus its DX9 and SM 3.0 compatible and 512MB GDDR3.
Why are you even comparing these 2. The 8800GT is far superior.teddyrob
You would know this how? I have an HD 3650, and have seen the performance of the 8800GT, and they really aren't far from each other. In a couple of areas, 3650, I'd say does alot better than 8800 GT.

nope, maybe if you compared it to 4650 i would understand but against the 3650 the 8800Gt is far superior, Hd3650 is comparable to an 8600GTS.

3850 is the way to go with AGP.I replaced a 6800gt and there is a lot of differance.But to get the most out of it you need a dual core and 2 gigs of ram.Plus its a very power hungry card,I would suggest at least a good quality 400watt PSU.But overall,I'm very happy with mine( I have the Sapphire version)it plays most games very well at 1400x900,including Crysis and FarCry2.
My HD 3650 is a PCI-E 16x lane, so it's a good choice. It's pretty fast. great for entertainment and games. not so much as the 3800 series though, because those are enthusiast graphics cards, and 3600 series is mainstream. It stiil does it's job well.
