So I need a cheap, but good AGP video card for my PC. I want to at least run Battlefield 2 on it. Ive narrowed it down to two cards on two sites http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102730 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2427400&sku=B52-7856 Other input is helpful

Radeon graphics card. I always go with them because they are reliable in my mind and there easy to crossfire.. ( join to graphics cards together )

I'd go with the ATI, seems more future proof. I don't think there's a big distinction to be honest, I'm just an ATI guy.

I prefer ATI over Nvidea.

The first says gets very hot in gaming so I would steer away from that one

Did you notice the cons on the Sapphire card? "Cons: The card gets very hot during gaming. I keep the case open and set a small fan blowing directly on the card, otherwise it overheats in an hour and the computer crashes. The card is fine if you're just surfing the internet or something though." Just because of that, I'd go with the GeForce. I've always had GeForce video cards, and never had a problem with any of them.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130498 Is better bang for your buck than either of those.
