My fan died on my video card and its integrated, I'm sure It's on borrowed time, so I figured I would upgrade.
I've been reading good things about the EVGA GeForce 6800 Ultra

While I was looking around I also found this one. Its the EVGA GeForce 6200.

This one has 512mb on board and is cheaper. Does anyone have an opinion on why this 6200 card costs less than the 6800 with less memory? Is the 6800 worth the extra cost considering it has less memory?
Thanks,
Rick

I suggest 8800 or higher. I bought a 9500gt geforce for like $65 a couple weeks ago and it has been good. For the other PC I bought a 8100 and it has it's limitations already. Check Microcenter they have some really good deals.

My board doesn't support PCI Express, so the 9500 series is out. I'm looking for a good AGP card. I'm not a gamer, so I'm not sure how much of a difference it's going to make for me.
