Hi guys,
I hope someone can give me some advice here..
My gfx card just popped so i need a cheap replacement.
Im looking to upgrade my whole pc in the near future, but for the time
being im just looking for a cheap fix.
It needs to be agp (8x i think), i need to to support dual output
(independant, not just cloning) One for my analogue monitor and one
for my TV (its got analogue PC in + HDMI)
Can someone suggest a cheap (but decent) card that will fit my needs?

What kind of card did you have?

Re: Looking for a recommendation
To my knowledge there's only ever been one AGP card with HDMI released to market, and that was Sapphire's X1600 Pro HDMI http://www.sapphiretech.com/us/produ...w.php?gpid=145 version released in June of last year. Problem is you can't find the things anywhere now (although the PCI-e version is still available). All the current-gen (i.e. Geforce 8 and Radeon HD 2k series) cards have yet to ship in AGP, although various manufacturers have announced AGP versions of their entry-level and mainstream cards.
The good news is most every X1600/X1650 on the market appears to be HDMI interoperable, meaning a $20 DVI-HDMI adapter is all you need to get HDMI output.My rig: Dell (meh) P4 530, 2.5GB RAM, HIS X1650 XT iSilenceII 256MB

i would get the 2900 pro, and overlock the crap out of it. it completes with the 8800gt, and it costs less
