Which nVidia card?

Is there a practical difference between the current crop of nVidia mainstream cards for Sage purposes? Is it worth the extra money to stretch for a 6600 or 6800 over a 6200? Pay extra for a GT?

I need an AGP card, if it matters, and I'm not a gamer.

What OS are you using? If linux i would recommend Nvida based card becuase of driver support for that a 6600 should do just fine.

Edit: I am pretty sure the higher end FX cards will do just fine as well.

I'm using Win XP. I ordered a 6200; hard to beat at the price.

Kinda late now - Given you've ordered.

I got the 6600GT, I've tested it against the TV out of a 350 (I have 32 Inch SDTV) , if anything, better.

Plus I can play games !!!!

Well worth the cash.

Cheers

Mark
