I got a computer that is a 3 GHz p4 that has an AGP slot and uses 800 MHZ DDR (I think). It is from the compaq business desktops, and seems good enough for a gaming platform (after more ram and a good video card)
What do you guys recommend for a good video card that is AGP and under 200. Its replacing my XP1800+ system. The second question is my router. I have a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 router. On some computers configured correctly, it has problems assigning a IP address through DHCP. I was wondering if anyone had had issues with this and was thinking of installing DD-WRT on it. Does anyone know something that may be wrong with it? I know its not password/encryption. -------------------- Southern Rock, beer and bears!

www.newegg.com
AGP is pretty old technology by now but if you need one check there. They have good reviews and the lowest prices (so just check your price range and what is available... ). They are pretty much the site for getting computer crap. the highest agp (nvidia wise) is a 7800, so google it if you can't find it on newegg and want the best agp you can get. -------------------- |
