Default 7600GT Performance?

I'm thinking of getting a second hard 7600GT (or similar, like a 6800GT). How does the 7600GT perform with TF2, UT04, counterstrike, and so on?

Edit: Reason: It has to be an AGP card, it's for my backup rig, and I'm cheap.

A 7600GT will get about 40-90fps in CSS, about the same in TF2. I wouldn't get a 7600GT, I'd go for an 8800, they are getting rather cheap. Down to 109.99 at some places (with mail in rebate).

This would be for a secondary rig I would leave at home for LAN parties and such. I have a low budget, and the card has to be an AGP card.
This rig: http://www.overclock.net/system.php?i=9322

I am already considering an 8800GT for my main rig (if I sell my x1950pro).

The 9500pro barely plays TF2 at 1024x768 res, all low.

On my system I get anywhere from 60-90 fps in TF2, DoD:S, CS:S with my settings maxed without vsync and AA enabled.

My fps drops below 30 sometimes in DoD:S when I'm zoomed in with a sniper rifle and when theres a lot of smoke nades going off.

7600gt should be fine, I ran TF2 at 1400 x 900 everything on high (not on very high) and it lagged a bit, but TF2 is a pretty demanding game.

Personally I'd get that.

But I can say the 7600gt is a good card. My brother had one and it ran all the games he played fine without any trouble.
