Good Stuff, hope you win that auction, I really like my x1950pro, got it oc'd as far as it will go, it hasnt dissapointed me yet, cranks out pretty much any game I throw at it at max setting with decent performence. Dont expect amazing benchmark scores or anything but the card is solid and will get you by for sure.

Since im not from the UK im not too sure which sites ship out there, the agp version is becoming increasingly more difficult to come across. amazon.co.uk lists them but some seem to be unavailable, ebay may be your best bet for finding one at a decent price, but im sure there are uk based sites out there just a google search away.

oh i have i question to ask, i noticed that there are a few different versions of the x1950 pro like sapphire, HIS, Powercolor and Asus. Is there a change in performance with each one? or is it the same but they just look different?

Those four manufacturers are good, HIS and ASUS put a better coller on them i think though. As for the power supply, at least 450 watts would be suitable and get a good one like Antec, Enermax, OCZ, whatever. Just toss aside those cheap unknown brands.
