At that price your not gonna reach any decent card with 128MB of memory, but the
Radeon 9700 Pro will deliver u the best performance for your price range.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatal...00_Series.html

It's called the:

OcUK ATI Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB DDR TV-Out/DVI (AGP) - OEM (GX-010-AT)


With shipping it will come to around £108 but its next day through royal mail or amtrak.

Wasn't that 180 dollars? It is a ALL-IN-WONDER, you wont get those for 100bucks.

If you want a card for under $100, then don't worry about 256mb. The card wont be fast enough to utilize 256mb, plus most games don't even need that much memory.

I would get a 9600pro 128mb. I don't think you can get anything better for your price range. It should be about $100 or so.

If you have about $145 you can go with a Powercolor 9800SE, and try softmodding it to a 9800pro.

Goodluck.

(prices are in american dollars)



EDIT: Holy crap, I scrolled down and seen the 9700pro for 85. Damn, that's a good price. Those are also hard to find. Get that, nvm about what I said.

Sometimes I wish I lived in UK....kinda...
