Buying a new card which one though?

Ok I am in the market for a new nVidia video card most likely will buy it from newegg.com and I want it to play Medieval2 totalwar. I have an 8x AGP slot and XP Home SP2 looking for a 256mb-512mb card that will run the above game.
The Price Range is up to $150 so I'm not sure which one to get.
Here are a few I am looking at let me know what you know about this card and if it will work with the updated drivers nVidia has.

EVGA GeForce 7300GT 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 8X Video Card

GIGABYTE GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 8X Video Card

ASUS GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card

Just a few I am looking at for now. Will buy in the next 24 hours so all advise will be appreciated

Reason I am switching to nVidia is because of ATI/AMD's new policy of no support for AGP, XP OS, and DX9. I am tired of the garbage they have been calling drivers which have made most of my games unplayable.

My advice is to stay away from ATI AGP cards. Don’t waste money on ATI anymore. I was with ATI for about 7 years now and 4 cards but they have lost me as a customer now. I post about ATI video cards at every forum I can to warn people to stay away from ATI/AGP cards.
