Very unlikely, I would say nVidia 6600GT atleast (I am not sure about ATI...) and that will cost $230 (cheapest from pricespy) for the 128MB AGP. What are the other specs of your PC? Motherboard? CPU? etc... Then we will know AGP or PCI-E |

AGP or PCI express TV Tuner cards are separate . You have to know whether your motherboard is AGP or PCI-Express . Or change the entire MB and CPU as well . Most PCI-E cards are now 256Mb or 512Mb . 6600GT is your entry-level now . As for good deals, avoid the CHEAPEST and look for reliable, good service, quality . |
