    Hold down Alt Gr key and the 4, that gives you €. As for your graphics card, heck them out on http://www.nvidia.com, find the one that suits what you need and look for it on ebay.

    AGP, I really don't have more than €200. This is the one I was about to get before I came here to ask and make sure.

    It's good right?

    the only difference in the cards is the extra 128mb or ram.

    Are you planning on upgrading your motherboard soon? If so, hold off buying AGP and go PCI-E :)

    The 6600gt is a great card! i use one myself. imo, the only other card that would be comparable in price/performance would be the radeon 9800 pro. though, personally, i'd stick with the 6600gt.


    haven't ordered off these guys myself - i've heard mixed reviews, but you must admit that they are cheap!!

    If you're grabbing a 6600GT get a 128meg one, the 256 wouldn't have any real performance gain for the extra euros.
