Graphic card on FEAR

Hi there guys, My graphic card sucks, I need to upgrade but am limited to AGP!! I saw this today in a local shop

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814131243 .

Anyone has any idea how well it will work with FEAR?? With my current graphic card, even putting on all options to off or minimum and just 2x Anti-aliasing, its slow, so I have to turn off anti-aliasing also which makes the game look like Doom 2!! maybe better, but still no where near what FEAR deserves or should look like. So any ideas and recommendations?

9550 is an old old card too, and it's crap. You will still only be able to play FEAR on minimum.

To play it on high, you would need something like a 7600GS / GT or even 7800GS. Or x1950GT.

What is your budget?
There are plenty of AGP8x cards that will run FEAR at full.
How much juice has youir power supply got?

Main thing is not bugdet, its availability, but I guess I should order online. Can't trust local shops anyways. My PSU has 350W, not much.

I think an x1950 will struggle with that Power supply but a x1650 should be OK.
Something like:
