I have $140 to spend and an agp system. Shoudl i get a 7600gs, x850pro or x850 gto?

Sorry, I meant 7600gs, x850pro, or x800gto.
 
I think the difference is that you can flash the bios on the pro to get it up to x850xt speeds or something like that.
 
I say go for the Pro as well...

It lets you overclock for massive gains.

The GS, IMO, is a bit better with massive overclocks, but usually requires a volt mod or something... The pro card will be better using "easier to reach" clocks.
 
I went X850 Pro - ati vivo - available at newegg for $130+ship and tax (depending on your location)
Looked at several locations - the X850 Pro out performs the 7600gs and the x1650 pro hands down - the 7600gs and 1650 pro have support for direct x 9.0c - but really do not have the "umph" to actually do 9.0c...
the ati vivo (video in video out?) as a sound connection for the rage pro theater chip on its back - excellent dvd decoding.
