If it is PCIe, I also would recommend the HD 5670 or the HD 4670. They will pwn any x1900 in every single respect but cost; performance, size, power consumption, heat generated, noise generated. They will be gloriously overkill for such an old machine.

To save cost, boycott the 1GB models and look for the 512MB ones instead. It will save you a lot of money and the performance will be about the same.

i edit the graphic to make it easier to understand the relationship of 5k series to 6k series.

for graphics card comparison between AMD and NVIDIA, pls refer to Tom's Hardware Graphics Card Hierarchy Oct 2010

obviously i place the nvidia cards as not to scale but based on rough idea i get from the hierarchy chart.

I'm not quite sure whether it is PCIe or not, is there many types? I thought it's all standard?

2 types, AGP and PCI-e, so gotta make sure 1st

Hmmm.. u could tell us the model of the mobo? easier for us to know what type of expansion slots u have on it... or you could run Everest and it should tell u what u have

CPU-Z or GPU-Z should also be able to identify if it is an AGP or PCIe

ehem. Patutlah 1,2 malam ni asyik mimpi rig aku bertanduk dua. Pm for best price pleaseeee.

go 4 Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1000W ~rm750...
but surprisingly Cooler Master PSU (Silent Pro Gold 1200W) beats Corsair AX1200W

http://www.80plus.org/manu/psu/psu_detail.aspx?id=25&type=2 AX1200W efficiency is 90.48%
http://www.80plus.org/manu/psu/psu_detail.aspx?id=23&type=2 CM Silent Pro Gold is 90.49%
this is y i ended with CM (1st target is AX1200) thanx 2 cstkl 4 his advise...
same solid performance but save up rm250+++

was just thinkin to upgrade my 8600GT to 5770, lucky bumped into this thread, gonna upgrade to 6850 now....hehe

again..with the confused model number 6 series..haiz..

can't find it on Everest, but CPU-Z didn't fail me this time.

it's PCIe uumm. The x16 is for what? I know there is x8 & x16, but what is it for?

fast2 buy bro..maybe can show us the picture and spec..hehe..

x8 & x16 is the link width.

higher = higher bandwidth....
