    Needed: AGP video card/S939 MoBo

    Looking for a semi-capable card for a customer who bought a PC from me last year. I got him hooked on Call of Duty for the PC that I sold him, but he wants to now play CoD2, and I KNOW the ATI 9250 card that I put in the rig isn't going to cut it.
    I was looking specifically for at ATI Radeon 9800Pro or an X1650, so if anybody has one that they aren't using, I would gladly take it off your hands for an agreeable price.

    Here's my alternative options:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814131043

    Sad thing is, I have a 9800Pro on the other side of my workbench, but that too is a customer PC that I sold last year, and it is crashing when playing Grand Theft Auto 3, so I needed to update to newer ATI drivers to fix it. Its getting darn hard to find any AGP cards, and I have an abundance of PCIe cards in case someone wants to work a trade also.

    Lemme know whats ya gots, and we will go from there !!

    Sorry WT, think the newest AGP card I have that I'm not using is a GeForce 6800GS card.

      Troop, that would work fine if you aren't using it. Let me know if I can trade you for a PCIe 6800 also. Otherwise, I can float you the cash and charge the customer. I know what kind of a hardware pig CoD2 was, so I'm trying to make this guy a happy gamer but not break the bank in doing it as well.

        found this card on that site
        Newegg.com - BIOSTAR V6802XA52 GeForce 6800XT 512MB 256-bit GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

        and if its realy 256bit card, i think its enough good for that price.

          Ohhh, old skool 6800 luvin' !!! I have a 6800 currently in my wife's rig, but I can't just give him that without replacing hers, so we'll see what his budget is, altho that is a good card for what he wants.

          While I am asking, does anybody have an AMD socket 939 Nforce 4 board that they want to unload ? I was working on a deal with CHOPS123 but that never panned out, so I still am looking for the board for a chip that I have, but its getting very hard to find a 939 board these days.

                AHHHHHHHHHHH !! JUNEEAAAUUUUU !!!

                You never BIN STUFF !! Now I'm sad ...

                Anyhoo, I have a 939 NF4 SLI board (just what I need) but its out for sale to a guy, but he's short on cash, so its coming back home for a month or two. The AGP card is an ASAP deal, as this guy bought CoD2 without my approval (shame on him) so I know that the rig won't run it well. Zantheus, sell your rig w/o parting out .. its easier to deal with that. Just keep an eye out for anything nd I'll be happy with that.

                  Thinking about new video card.

                  Finaly, i cant take anymore my current SPARKLE Computer. Thinking about upgrading.

                  XFX GeForce 9600GT OC, 512MB, 256bit, HDTV, SLI - Videokartes (PCI-EX) - Metaleks datortehnika
                  ~$218
                  XFX GeForce 9600GSO OC, 384MB, 192bit, HDTV, SLI - Videokartes (PCI-EX) - Metaleks datortehnika
                  ~$163

                  Well, its all about price. Searching for good video card.. price could be max $200.

                    I'll "GIVE" you a Radeon 9800 XT that I've taken out of my XPS recently. One thing, the fan makes a little noise, but it plays COD4 just fine! send me an e-mail if you want it.

                      Spanky, that is a very generous offer ! I will email you at home later today and see if I can't send you something in return. The 9800Pro I have has an Arctic Cooler Rev2 fan setup on it and that is doing a superb job.
                      Buying a new/better video cooler is a small price to pay when I literally can't even get an AGP card these days.

                        Many thanks and good karma to both Trooper (met him earlier today to pick up a vid card) and Spanky, a new member who I hope to see ingame sometime soon, for their generous contributions to the PC repair cause.
                        If you two guys need any PC hardware/software favors in return, you have a free pass due from me, so keep that in mind !

                        Troop, you gotta give TF2 a try !! It really is a blast, and the varied classes you can choose make it infinitely playable depending on what you want to do. Thanks again guys !

                          np WT, nice meeting someone from the Lair too. And don't worry guys, he's as scary irl as he is on the forums *grins* I'll think about TF2, between Age of Conan, CoD4, and wanting to try the new DoD:S beta out I'm not sure when I'm going to find time, lol.
