I Have a P4 2.6 GHZ cashe 256 processor, a GIGABYTE 865PE MB, NVIDIA 6200 XFX VGA and 1 GB ram, am in a problem right now...my 6200 is crap,of course every1 knows that...and i need to get 6600GT, and where am from there is nothing AGP anymore...all the VGA cards r PCI express , and my gigabyte doesnt support PCI express, so the question is....should i upgrade my whole PC,meaning i get the core 2 duo... or should i just order a 6600GT AGP from the US ? PS : my only concern is gaming...i dont care abt maximum graphics i just like the game to run smooth n fast

for fast and smooth running for games; i suggest: u should replace ur motherboard, something that support PCI express, no need to replace ur processor, memory etc...just make sure the motherboard u r going to buy does support all the hardware u have... Good luck!

If you are looking to upgrade your video card, I suggest you check an online store for AGP as it is still alive and kicking.
I guess the real answer is how much $ do you wanna spend? Video cards are going to run you around $150-200 or more. A new system will run you from $600 to $3000 depending on what you want and how high-end you go.
