Need New Video Card

[Lyerae]

I need a AGP x4/x8 video card that is capable of playing some relatively modern games (World of Warcraft, Starcraft II, Portal 2, etc.). My goal budget is as-cheap-as-possible, without it being completely terrible, though I'd like to stay under $60.

Any recommendations (as well as a good, compatible fan / heatsink. I don't trust default cooling, since it killed my last card.)?

Aftermarket coolers for AGP graphics cards are going to be impossible to find.

I am currently using a Ati Powercolor 2400HD 256MB AGP card, I have ran Starcraft 2 on it on lowest graphics, not sure about Portal 2 though but it should be able to handle it if you have a good enough CPU.

really recommend new MOBO which supports PCIe - this can be had for under $50, and then you can look to buy a card that isn't 5 years old

Yeah, I think it's going to end up being easier to just buy a new motherboard. Thanks anyways.

Yea AGP is long dead. Get something with PCI express, then you wont have to update again in like 2 months.
