    Resolved Resolved new problem has arisen ->(buying new graphics card for relatively slow pc)

    Hi,

    I have the following configuration:
    P4 1.6 Ghz
    512 MB Ram(PC 3200)
    120 GB HD 7200RPM (8mb chache)
    and a MB with SiS 645 chipset (4x Agp port)

    and I would like to buy a new graphics card. As gaiming goes I like to play occasionaly games such as Hidden and Dangerous 2 , Rainbow Six: Raven Shield and when it will be released Ghost Recon 3. I would like to buy a graphics card that will enable me to play such games with high FPS with all the details and full FSAA and AF. I was thinking of Radeon 9800 pro but a friend of mine suggested that my configuration is too slow to support such card and such a purchase would be a waste of money. He made it sound like that R 9800 pro will give yet very little FPS because of my configuration. What I want to know is why coudnt R 9800 pro be used with the mentioned configuration? Would it really be a waste of money? I asked him for the reson but he coudnt give me one. I would greately apprichiate any explanation aswell with a tip of what card should I buy.
