Graphics Card

[Turbo_Aspiration]

Reading the other posts here, i only find graphics cards that are a bit out of my range

I have an absolute maximum of R1500 to spend on a card... obviously im not expecting miracles but want something worth my money.

Im looking at a sapphire x1300 512mb or a gigabyte x1300PRO 256mb.. any opinions on these? The sapphire is about R300 more but it has more memory. The gigabyte uses the pro chip which is clocked higher.
Also saw an "ASUS ATI Extreme AX1600Pro TD PCI-Express 256MB" within my range

Any suggestions would really be appreciated

get a 6600gt 256mb DDR3 128-bit..

I'd suggest either of these cards:

http://shop.prophecy.co.za/index.ph...16&category_id=50&option=com_phpshop&Itemid=6 (2nd one has 256MB memory which is good)

6600GT FTW.
ATI midrange sucky at the moment.

Radeon X800 256bit 256mb DDR3 seems not too bad either. Its in that range as well~

Thats just outside my reach, on a really tight budget... if i had a bit more to spend wud go for x800 512mb

Thanks guys! looks like the 6600GT takes it
