no the x1300 is not overkill, its far from it. Thats a lower end midrange card, even with 512mb's of ram.

No way is a x1300 a lower mid range. Its budget. And the card will never use all that 512MB of ram.

I dont know much about grphics cards. When I uploaded my specs to my Xfire profile, it sayd I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200. I have no idea if that is good, normal, or horable.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

It should run Halo fine.

I have a Radeon 9600XT, and it runs Halo like a charm.

the x1300 is definately a budget card. It costs anywhere from $70-110. Any of hte good higher end cards cost anywhere from $300 up to like 700.

well i payed over $300 for it. i ust to have a cheap nVidea 5500 256MB PCI, it was alright, but this, this one is amazingly better, im just wondering if this is as a good as the graphics can possible be for halo or can i go higher with a better card. its only an AGP, my motherboard only supports PCI and 1 slot for AGP, its an older board. im getting a dual core with PCI express soon, im planning on building it like i did with this 1, so i cant give u a model
