def won't fit in my PC - Motherboard is AGP-8x only
However I was digging around a bit, and discovered that I'd actually bought my graphics card in 2002 ![]() It's an ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon - built in TV tuner & all that - it was top of the range at that time and cost me about £250 iirc So, am I right in guessing that any 'modern' graphics card would be able to run Quake 4 - I installed the game at Christmas, only to discover that the strange brown blob that was very very slowly moving on my screen was the game starting up ![]() If my budget stretches to about £50, what would be a reasonable card ![]() |

Ooh, AGPs are expensive aren't they? Just had a wee squizz at Overclockers, they're usually good pricewise, but they don't have any Nvidias in your range, and just pretty antique Radeons...
I'd look at second hand- Ebay or computing forums- for AGP, since there'll always be people upgrading their motherboards and having to replace the cards. Just had a quick look and it looks like it's all Nvidia.
