Is that a good video card? I only have about 50-60 dollars and I'm hoping to get a good card that can handle WoW on medium-high settings.

Help is appreciated.

That card will play most games at pretty good settings as long as its in a decent machine. My secondary PC has the Made by ATI version and it is a 2.6p4 ht 800fsb 2x512 in dual channel and it will play cs:s, Mohaa, BF2, DOD, CoD uo, with pretty good settings no problem at all. Just over a year ago that card was $200.00

Alright thanks for the quick reply. It's for my brother and he has this:

That can handle it right?

Yeah that would work perfect as long as its an 8xagp slot which it should be (I will check it out and let you know if it's not) Even if its a 4x slot it will still work.

Edit - I checked it is 8xagp

No problem

I just cant believe nobody tryed to talk you into getting an Nvidia card instead,,Yet, lol Give them a little while. the 6600 would be a little better If you could find it and might be around the same price.
