What is the best video card that will stir on a PCI bus adapter?

I want a video card that will work for my up to date game (Neverwinter Nights 2). It requires at lowest 256MB card, but recommends a 512MB one, so I would similar to a 512 one that supports Shader Model 3.0.



Recommended: ATI X800 series, NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series, or higher video card



Supported Video Card Chipsets:



ATI X1950 series

ATI X1900 series

ATI X1800 series

ATI X1600 series

ATI X850 series

ATI x800 series

ATI Radeon 9800 series

ATI Radeon 9700 series

ATI Radeon 9600 series

ATI Radeon 9500 Pro

NVIDIA GeForce 7900 series

NVIDIA GeForce 7800 series

NVIDIA GeForce 7600 series

I consider you mean AGP.

The utmost PCI even gone is Diamond which they used for Autocad during the Pentium 1 days.

And maximum it can go is 128+15Mb.

Go for NVDIA 7800 series.
If you close-fisted PCI Express bus then I'd right to be heard the Nvidia 7950 is your best bet for future expansion since it contains a dual GPU.



ATI's X1950, equally, is the fastest single-core video card on the market today.



But, do you really want to invest contained by any video card that can't support DirectX 10 when it debuts surrounded by the next couple of months? If possible, try to hold bad until those cards come out. Personally, I'd hate to spend adjectives that money on a DX9 card.
Some of those look like AGP adapters.



Don't you expect PCI Express?



Don't see how you'd ever find a PCI card that would accomodate 256+ MB of video RAM.



At any rate, (IMHO) if you're looking for hard core gaming cards, stick near NVidia!
