    This card has DDR2, you should buy something with GDDR3.
    How much money have you got to spend?

    if you want to be able to handle the recent games, you're gonna have to spend the money.

    either the nVidia 8800GT (HERE)

    or the ATi HD3870 (HERE)


    also, you will need a new power supply like one of THESE
