Nvidia 7800 GTX   http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130237\n\nIf you want to save a tad you could always go with the new 7900 series..it should do everything you need.\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150144

NewEgg list two PCI FX5500s, at $54 and $78.\nI recommend that you opt for the 128-bit $78 3DFuzion model - although it is currently out of stock...\n\nA motherboard from before AGP times!  The processor might not be upto playing COD - you should give serious thought to a total upgrade.  For $112 you could source a Foxconn SoA motherboard, Sempron 2400+ CPU and 256Mb DDR400 RAM.\nThen $78 could buy you a 9600XT - but if you had the money - there would be much more choice!\n\n(AGP) comparisons of older cards:\nhttp://www.tomshardware.co.uk/2003/12/29/vga_charts_iii/page16.html

Well, what model is your computer and how old is it.  That will depend on what kind of graphics card you can install in it.  If you just got the computer it most likely has only a PCIe slot.  If it is even one year old then it probably has an AGP slot.  Also, the lower end Dell computers used to not include even an AGP slot so it depends on what model it is.\n\nMy favorite card right around the sub $250 is the Radeon X800XL best performance per price ratio, it is even a favorite over at Cnet.  But I will warn you if you don't have at least a 300W power supply in your computer you may not be able to use it.  But that's okay, another favorite of mine is the Geforce 6600GT but it only comes in a 128MB version.\n\nBut you really need to check your computer, either in the manual or if you have the original specs and see if it has either an AGP 8X/4X slot or PCIe x16 slot and that will determine which version of the card you should get because most video cards now come in both versions.\n\nFor benchmarks on the X800XL see Tomshardware, http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/11/28/don/page7.html\n\nand for the 6600GT see, http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/04/04/good_3d_performance_at_a_middling_price/page29.html\n\nfor Cnet's review of the X800XL see, http://reviews.cnet.com/ATI_Radeon_X800_XL_PCIE_256MB/4505-8902_7-31320650.html?tag=tpr

If it's a PCI-E, I would reccomend the Geforce 7900GT from EVGA

Nvidia GeForce 7800, PCI-X, preferably with 512Mb of RAM. Very expensive, though.

check and compare specs and prices. know what you want your card to do. i picked up a nvidia geforce 6600gt for around your price and it works fine for me. i also understand if i want to play some of the newer games coming out i might need to get a better card. but for now this one does great for me. keeps up with multiplayer games and works great when i play games offline. \n\n   look at whatever games you have or are going to get and see what they recommend, and get a card a little better then what they recommend so it isn't obsolete to soon.\n \n   P.S. check out  www.newegg.com  there prices are good and ships fairly fast. also you can compare and read others views on the items you are looking at.

You should chage your power supply to at least 400W to be able to put a reasonable graphics card. There is no reason why you should stick on with the 108W ps.

Basically, if you have the cooling capabilities to handle it, I would suggest the 256MB card.  The more memory, the better it is capable of handling difficult graphics.

Plenty.  I was going to say any of the Radeon X series or NVIDIA 6000/7000 series.

Graphic Card companies like ATI or Nividia are always releasing new graphic cards. I would check their websites and look. Don't be suprised to pay $600  for the best.

If the eVGA card will do what you want it to, then buy it. Your system sounds like it's a few years old, so I wouldn't spend too much to upgrade it. nVidia (geforce) cards are definitely a better choice performance wise than what ATI offers in your price range. Check online to see if you can find benchmarks for the three cards you are considering and see how they stack up.

How much are you wanting to spend and do you have an AGP or PCIe slot?\n\nI would not recommend the 1600 series for gaming.  It is at the bottom on my list.  If you want a gaming card get at least an 1800 series ATI card or a 7800 series Nvidia card.\n\nI would recommend you get an ATI 1900 series card then.  Get one that fits in your price range.

First make sure you can disable the intergrated graphic controller before you buy a new graphic card. \n\nNext you need to make sure that it is the right Bus like PCI or PCIe. I have even seen some computers come with intergrated graphics only to keep the price down, but also inlcude a AGP slot in case you wanted to upgrade later.\n\nAfter thats  decided then you should get the most recent one ATI or Nividia. Because there are newer features that games use(example: shaders). Other then that just make sure the one you order says retail or boxed version. Because you don't want to end up getting a cheap card that's sent in a bag with a burn cd for the drivers.
