Not looking at the top of the line video card that costs me more than my salary I earn in a year. Something 200-300 dollars.



Specs: 3500+ AMD processor (2.2 ghz)

             1 gig of ram DDR ( looking to add another gig)

            128 MB ati radeon x300 SE ( This is the video card im replacing, complete garbage)

             Windows XP



Your help is appreciated :)

    If  you like ATI,  I sugest the x1650pro 512, thats what I have an its a great little card that will only cost you about $150-$200.

    Also, I would seriously consider upgradinng your ram to 2GB, you'd really be surprised by how much that will make a difference.

    Cheers.

    Get a Gigabyte 8600GT. It's 142 dollars and comes with supreme commander. Not only is it DX10 compatable, but it's pretty nice and powerful too.

    Agreed.  nVIDIA 8600 GT(S) is a very well-made graphics card.  It will be great for many years.

     

    May I suggest you view this page for all the nVIDIA cards, it shows descriptions of what they do, retail prices, and everything else you need to know.

    www.nvidia.com/object/graphics_cards_buy_now.html

    This is the ultimate page for finding the best card for you.  But, like I said, suggestion is already there.  Why else is the 8600 advertised in all the BestBuy and CircuitCity pages? lol

     

    Good luck!
