Hey, Im looking to upgrade my graphics so I can play Counter-Strike Source and HL2. I have a modded Dell Dimension 2400 P4 2.39 GHz, 768 MB RAM, 60GB HD, Onbard Intel Extreme Graphics... At this point my moms GeForce4 MX-440 SE playes HL2 and CS:Source very well and mine plays it like crap. I get 5-30 FPS while hers gets 40-70 FPS. My problem is I only have PCI slots and I dont want to purchase a PCI card and then later down the road buy a new mobo for agp graphics. I am also on a limited budget of around $100-$130, which I dont believe is enough for a decent mobo and vid card. So my main question is which AGP 8x motherboards have the best onboard graphics for socket 478 that would be equal to or better then a GeForce4 MX-440 SE and also might have overclocking features for the processor? I was looking into the ATi Radeon 9100 IGP but I saw bad reviews and wasnt sure it was capable of handling HL2. Thanks
