All OK, but not that great. Can you splurge for a 6800GS?

 

[N0toriou5]

if it is reccomended, i suppose i could splurge. what is the cost on the 6800gs?

$219; but this is pretty much the best AGP card money can buy.

9600xt

i've heard that people are still doing good with a 9800XT, i think.

the 9600xt overclock it and yull be good.It will play BF2 even if it isnt overclocked as long as you have 1gb.

For about $300, you can get the 7800GS... the Cadillac of the AGP cards.

Well of those three the 9600XT is better, but you should spring for a 6600GT or 6800GS, or if you have the money the 7800GS.

If you're buying budget AGP go either 6600 GT or 7600 GT (on the nVidia side at least). I seriously reccomend nothing else if you actually wanna be able to game.

Sure a low budget card like a 9600 will run BF2.... but with 30fps on all low settings? No thanks.
