Not sure if you need AGP or PCI-E, nevertheless

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (AGP)
X700 Pro (PCI-E)

I have the x700 pro pci-e suits me am thinking of x850 though just for the power aswell as a gig of ram.

how do I know whether I need AGP or PC-IE ???

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

A Google for "Dell Dimension 8200" shows it's a few years old, so it won't be PCI-E.

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

It has AGP.

My prevoius graphics card the fan got gunged up with dust and stopped working... I think it cooked the chips on the board :-(

The latest g-force, that is what we have just installed in this hunk of junk!

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

You may as well go for the 9800 pro then, under 90 notes.

Paul picked it and I paid for it!!! That is why it is a hunk of junk as I could not go on my retail therapy today ;(

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

I dunno I just gave Paul my purse and I went of the shop in a huff!! Blikin men!!

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

Hope you had £400 in your purse (if so, you haven't now)

Re: Recommend graphics card...
 

the '9800 pro all in wonder' also comes in under 90 quid, that is a brilliant price for a great multimedia card.

- the only thing I would worry about is the power supply being up to it ???
