What video card is better radeon x800 AGP for $135 or the x1650 PCI-E for $95?

I know PCI-E is suppose to be faster, but if it is than why the more expensive price on the x800?|||Best to have the X1650 PCI-E 'cause it has more powerful GPU than X800 and also PCI-E cards has its own advantage over AGP cards in terms of speed and performance.|||The biggest difference is the form factor that each video card uses (AGP vs. PCI Express). This also happens to be the critical factor for your choice, as your system uses one or the other, but not both. So you need to determine which form factor your motherboard will accept, then make your purchasing decision from there.|||The AGP has more Ram and better cooling unit.

That IceQ makes it pretty much worth it.

Although it seems like PCI-E would perform better, youll hear nothing but good things about the Ice-Q.



And theyre both crossfire compatible so you really cant go wrong.|||The reason why the Radeon x1600 AGP is expensive than the Radeon x1650 is because the x1600 has 512MB meaning faster processing and memory units to play games or images. However, i would recommend the radeon x1650 PCI-e for it is overclocked more than the x1600 and alos the PCI-e is a newer type of card. OH yea one more thing, agp and pci-e are two different cards, so first identify which type of slot your computer can run AGP or PCI-e. google the images and you will be able to tell which card you need. Hope this helps
