my system has a huge bottleneck

amd 64 3800
msi k8n neo2 platinum
512 pc 3200 ram
2x160 gb hds
*ati 9600 se
soundblaster audigy 2 zs

i know i need to get a new gpu but what should i get? im upgrading to pci-e at christmas so i only want to spend around 100-150 bucks. i was thinking eithet a 6600 or a 9600 pro. what would be the best gpu i can get for that
 
Definitely go for a 6600GT over a 9600 Pro. The 6600GT is the best value for money and will outperform the 9600.
 
I have a 9600pro. Don't get it. I'm about to upgrade to the 6600GT myself here b/c the 9600 isn't cuttin it as well as i want it to in games.
 
your ram could also be creating a bottleneck in ur system, get another stick of 512
 
i don;t know how good the others are cos i've never used them but my gigabyte 6600GT does well at overclocking as im presently running 589/1.19. mabe the others are better but im happy with my purchase as it came with theif ds and another game that i can't remember :)
