Since everyone was going gaga for the $100 x1600 AGP video card from ATI, I thought I'd post this from Fatwallet.
Newegg has the X850 Pro card from ATI for $140. I would spend the extra $40 bucks and get this. Even though it's older it's a faster card with more pipelines.
Radeon X850PRO 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 VIVO AGP 4X/8X Video Card - $140 + Shipping (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102606)
If you want a video card for gaming I would spend the extra $50 and get this.
The persofmance of the x850 seems about double of the 1600
