My Pc

I believe the latest AGP is 8x so that may make a difference.

My graphics card is a PCI-E card that only cost £50 and works great and full quality on most games.

i think that your graphics card may be very old as compared the latest one and also your AGP 4x is also very old. so, there is a problem to your pc for because of this reasons.

See, the Asus X850XT is pretty much one of the best you can get, I think the only one better is the PE editition and some new 512mb one, but why does it run so bad on my pc?

X850XT is good for non-PCI Express, but the 1800xt is better ;)

It could be a number o things, not just one.

Do a disk clean, defrag, registry clean, virus scan, and clean up the computer.
When i got my new video card i just backed everything up and did a format.

Also when i go play a game that requires a lot of resources i turn everything that that i dont need like IIS, SQL, Anti-virus, networking, printing services, themes, error alert services, etc.
