I think you may have a problem. ATI and NVidia Both stopped making AGP compatible cards in 2007. This means that Nvidia 8000 series cards do not have AGP. I don't know about ATI. You might be able to hunt down a 7000 series card that should at least run COD4. Talk to you later and happy hunting.

P.S. Chef should be around tonight, I think. He is the computer Monster-Genius and will probably know the best solution for you.

You might have to go to Nvidia they have a 6800 that is more than the game requires.Where ATI I think is maxed out at 9800.But I don't know I only use Nvidia Cards.......Never had a problem with them ever..........

Hellraiser, the Nvidia 7800GS is going to be your best bet. Personally I prefer Nvidia chipsets over the ATI, less driver and software conflicts, more reliable as well. Hope this helps.....Also everything on the graphics side is going PCI-E..SLI for Nvidia, Crossfire for ATI running the dual cards.

Thanks for the help ill probably go with the Nvidia 7800GS and for my birthday ill be upgrading my cpu so then i can use PCI-e

o and if you do find one it might not fit your monitor cable.

Another option... http://www.sa-pc.com has AGP video cards. A similar store up the road in Austin (with a much better web site) is http://www.discountelectronics.com.

A quick check there shows a NVIDIA Albatron GeForce FX5200 128MB DDR with DVI for $59.

I could hit the San Antonio store for you if mail-order doesn't pan out.
