X1650 XT / X1950 Pro on a AMD 2800+ Bottleneck or not?

    I blowup my old graphic card, burnt the card and slot to crap with blue-smoke of doom everywhere.

    I have to use my old system which is a XP2800+ on a Asus A7N8X socket A nForce2 board, with 2GB of DDR 400. I’m think of getting a Sapphire ATI Radeon X1650 XT 256MB / 512MB or X1950 Pro 256MB/512MB.

    Would the CPU be to much of a bottleneck for these card or will there run ok?

    for the x1950pro it would be, but probably not for the x1650xt.

    Well, they'll run no slower than the system did with the older card :)
