What's best nVidia (AGP) card?

I'm hoping the 3850 will let me run 1920x1080 at decent frames. I keep my FS locked at 25.
 
I ordered the Sapphire version from Ewiz. Don't want to wait until these things are commanding a huge premium on ebay. Thanks for that link GT182. They had the card $11 cheaper than newegg and it had free shipping. Can't wait to get it. I'll post the results when I do.
 
Just went to get the drivers since my 3850 came in today and Sapphire has new 9.4 hotfix drivers listed on their site for the 3850 AGP. They were posted on April 9th.
 
Got my card installed today I and went with the 9.4 hotfix to start with. So far so good. I think I need to dump my FS9.cfg and let it build a new one cause FS is actually a little slower. GTR2, GTL and rFactor now run like they should. Before with the old 7800GS I was only getting about 25fps with just me on the tracks. With the HD3850 I get 60fps with a full field at 1920x1080. Just impressive!
 
I got my 6800XT from eWiz. And it was delivered in 3 days with free shipping. I think they have better service and a larger selection too over New Egg.
 
I'm impressed with them. Their price on this card was much better than Newegg. Thanks again for the heads up on eWiz!

:ernae:

I deleted the dxdiag.xml file that was in the folder with the FS9.cfg and that got my frames back to where they should be. I noticed it didn't make a new one but FS seems to be working fine without it.
