ATI Radeon 9800 Pro SE 256MB

Hi, at the moment I'm trying to buy a good but not too expensive graphics card but I have 1 problem, I haven't got much of an idea what to look for in a graphics card. I remember looking a while back and at the time this sounded good, I can get it for £25 and was wondering whether it was worth it?

Also if I did decide to buy what sort of games would I be able to play on it, Doom 3? <_< or maybe that's optomistic lol.
Anyway please help, I haven't got a clue.

I also have a 9800 pro and it's mint! I'm running the f.e.a.r sp demo at 1024x768 & maximum detail.......runs smooth as butter...

I can run doom3 with a 9800pro 128mb and 3.0ghz, 1 gig ram, etc etc on 1024x768 on medium/high settings and get about 40-100 fps. You should be fine as long as you have a good system. Also, 25 Euros is extremely cheap, you should jump on that deal.

Thanks a lot for the help guys, sounds good to me think it will run nicely on my new p4 2.8ghz with a gig of ram, thanks for the advice guys.
