i would say the 9800 but your entire system needs a tune up. either 9600

His system should handle HL2 and similar games except the gfx card is his limiting factor.

I would recommend the 9800 pro.

I would recommend the 9800 pro.

Same. The 9800 Pro is easily the best priceerformance midrange card available at the moment, at least imo.

Lads whould any of those cards fit a PCI slot or have PCI versions.

I think you probably want a PCI FX5200.

There's also a PCI Radeon 9200.

You're not going to get those cards on a PCI bus though.

Considering that the X800/6800 cards arn't out yet the 9800 pro is still a top of the line card
