Thinking of buying one of these graphics cards:

GeCube ATI Radeon X1950 Pro 256MB GDDR3 VIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI

- Powered by ATI Radeon X1950 PRO - 575MHz (RV570 80nm)
- 256MB-256bit 8 channel GDDR3 memory - 1.38GHz
- 36 Pixel shader processor
- Ultra-threaded SM 3.0 Engine
- 512-bit Ring-bus
- HDCP Ready!!
- Low power consumption (Consumes 60W less than equivalent X1900 XT)

At the moment im running a Geforce 6600GT so was thinking of getting something with a bit more oomph within the next month...can get this card for Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£180...im still running AGP btw...Will i notice a big difference with this card compared to the 6600GT or would i be better keeping my money?
