I dunno about you but I think my time is worth a bit more then the cost of a midrange graphics card, Newegg has 7600GT PCIe for $75 after rebate, $110 for the AGP4x/8x version, make sure that you pick the right slot type. Yes theres other acceptable and even better cards, I've posted about it sevral times.

You see, my PC is already old and I've upgraded it several times adding RAM ,HD and videocard (before I knew Linux).
so they next step is to buy a new PC, which I should hold for at least 6 months.
moreover a decent AGP card for my old PC costs about 150-200$ which is a waste for my considering the fact that my current videocard isn't bad at all, it is bad only for a very few games.
