the X1650 is one of the latest cards around and is Vista safe.\nit is *NOT*, though, a fast card; a 9800(XT) will outrun it most common benchmarks.\nit will only run (properly) on a newer motherboard, either with PCI-E or AGP8; you will have trouble getting the card to run properly on any older motherboard only supporting AGP4.\nthus, if you have one of those, the Nv5200 (or a 2nd hand 9800XT) should be your preferred choice. none of those will run Vista to its fullest, though

Don't buy an A64 3500.  It's no longer worth it.  Buy a 3800: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103531  And if you're wanting to play F.E.A.R., I'd go with at least an X1600XT: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Category=38&N=2010380048+1069609641+106790809+1067918888&Submit=ENE&SubCategory=48  or 7600GS: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Category=38&N=2010380048+1069609641+1305520548+106790717+1067920619&Submit=ENE&SubCategory=48\n\nOf course, spending twice that much, or more, on your video card would not be a bad idea, either.  Your video card makes about 3 times as much difference in gaming, than your cpu.  \n\nAnd no, that "bundle" you linked to is not even close to being able to play F.E.A.R.  That's a 1.3 Ghz Duron, soldered to an extremely cheap AGP motherboard.  It's fast enough for word processing, but that's about it.

For $400 I would do the following get yourself a motherboard with PCIe with a socket 939 CPU slot.  Then get yourself an Athlon 64 3000+ ($111), the motherboard will be about $70 to $100 and then get yourself a Geforce 7600GT (about $170).  You're really splitting your budget into several parts here but you NEED a new CPU, you NEED a new GPU and you NEED a new motherboard.  At least you aren't as bad as some of the people running around here with Geforce2 and Radeon 7000 graphic cards.\n\nThe reason you shouldn't upgrade the GPU is that there isn't much stuff coming out for AGP anymore all the new 7 series and X1K GPUs are coming out on PCIe only.  Then we have the problem of your CPU, EVEN if you could find a motherboard to support it, the GPU would be held back by the processor so upgrading the graphics would result in a minor increase of performance but not as much with a new processor.

For what you want to do, I wouldn't go with an Opteron.  It would be fine for your use, but it's really overkill for the price/performance.  Check out the Athlon64s, entire system will be cheaper and more than sufficient for what you need.  Link is to a site I found (not my site--I can't sell directly to end users) that has a configurator.  Looks easy to use--

Yes but it's not worth it Because PCI won't allow to share memory from the motherboard like AGP or PCI express will. \nYou have a decent Card For a PCI.

It depends on what you will use it for. Games, business, etc. It also depends on on your motherboard. Does it have PCI, AGP, PCI-Express. If it has PCI-Express, get a video card for that particular slot. Me personally, I stick with NVidia. You can't go wrong with either a NVidia or ATI card. As for the best and cheapest, start buying Maximum PC. They do Vs. features which will help with taking the guesswork out of deciding which video card is best for you. Good luck!

Nope.  This is like putting a square peg in a round hole. \n\nLook for a PCI video card.\n\nIf you get a new motherboard that has a AGP slot, make sure that you know what you are looking at.   The old AGP boards and old AGP slots are different than the new 4X and 8X AGP slots.   Again, it's like Apples and Oranges.

I would go with....\nProcessor: AMD Athlon 3800+ (Get AM2 motherboard and chip)\nRAM: 1 Gig\nVideoCard: For what you are doing, a Radeon X1200 or so.\nHarddrive: 80 gigs should do it.\n\nHonestly, if you don't know what to put in the computer, I think you shouldn't be starting this kind of business.  Also, check on the legality of renting computers with video games installed on them....
