AGP graphics card recommendations?

My trusty 3 1/2 year old Medion PC is starting to sound quiet ropey.

It does what I need it to do, & I don't see the point in buying a whole new PC. I've already recently added more RAM (2GB in place of the original 512MB) & a bigger HDD.


It sounds like a fan is on its way out... I've opened the case, & then turned it on to try & locate the noise.... seems to be from the graphics card.

Very noisy/clicky/buzzy.

The card is an ATI Radeon 9800XT (branded as a Medion 9800XXL or something).


So, does anyone have any recommendations for a cheap AGP card to replace it please?


I'm not fussed about playing the latest games on it, as I have my 360 & my Wii for games. The only games I actually tend to play on the PC are C&C3, Defcon, & HL2/Ep1 (& the upcoming Ep2), which my current old card is fine for.
