Best Graphic Adapter for PC games

[temi]

I have not played games on my PC for many years, I am thinking of buying a PC with a nice PC adapter because of my son. What is the best graphic adapter for games this days?

Well I'd go for a PCI-Express. The cards are about £30 cheaper than an AGP slot, and are more extensive.

Thanks for that suggestion Rys, will bear that in mind when shopping for the new PC

If you get a PC from tigerdirect . com - you can build your own (for like 1/2 the price
of a name brand!) with quality parts. Just tell them you want the top of the line PC
(a gaming PC) - and they'll help you configure it. Again, you'll save money this way.

I have one, and had ZERO problems. Even if there is a problem, I can ship for free!

I don't think they exist in UK

Martin, Tigerdirect is way outdated and in many cases more expansive than others.
I can't suggest for Europe hardware but in US two the best sites by far are newegg.com and zipzoomfly.com.
NewEgg gives you very good descriptions with a lot of customer feedback. There are lots of specials on bundles and probably the best prices you can find. I have been using them for years. Zipzoomfly website itself is little bit less advanced but very similar choice of products and price level. Both deliver very fast.

Thanks Skinner! I never shopped around after the prices on Tigerdirect. I'll check
those sites out.
