Hello, well, I have a rather poor computer and the best card that I can have is a Radeon X1600 Pro 512MB AGP Card.

The cheapest that I can find on the internet is $182.99 and they have a $30.00 rebate, and it is from newegg.com

I was wondering, since you have all shopped there alot for your computer, how does the warrenty work?

Also, would this card be good enough to run World of Warcraft and Guild Wars?

I have one of those cards in a system I use, and it runs Guild Wars fine. I'm not sure about World of Warcraft, but I don't imagine it's much more stressful on the GPU.

Is it a good card?

Also, how is the warrenty, what if it is defective or something and I don't buy a warrenty.

steer clear of the 1600 pro, its a horribly performing card, go for a 6600GT (6-10% faster, quite a bit cheaper) or 7600 GS (20-30% faster, still probobly a little cheaper) if you need agp

According to his other thread he needs AGP 1.5, so none of these cards will even work in his PC (including the x1600).

You need a new system Dark Soul. Sorry man. :o

I think the ATi card will as the Rialto PCI-E to AGP bridge chip goes all the way down to AGPx2. nVidia's BR02 can't go any lower than AGPx4. But then again, I could be wrong.
