I'm in the process of upgrading my computer. Lately, I've been having a frame rate of about 20 and it drops to about 3 or 4 when i'm engaged with cons. I just wanted to know which vid card works best with AH and costs under $150. Thanks in advance.

PS...I still can't fly these birds for crap! I need to find a squad so that I can hide behind the big boys and pick up the free kills

For the price, I gota agree 9600 PRO...or of course even better 9600 XT. Stear clear of the NON-pro...its much much less capable.

Put out 44 bucks above the 150 cutoff,and get a 9700 non pro.Kicks the **** outa those other cards,and will overclock to 9700pro speeds.I own one and have had no problems.Not many games you have on your hard drive will bog down with the card,even with AA and AF maxed out,Halo for pc being the exception for me so far.
