well, i think you can get geforce 8600 gt or 8600 gts. it's better than all you mention above. ( since you want to play game i suggest get geforce and not ati radeon 2600 xt because ati driver is not good now)

I recommend personally a 8series graphics card... investing in a 7series or less is a waste of money because they won't support DirectX10... go for the 8500....

I dont know the FPS you'd get with the cards but....

Cheapest prices I've found anywhere (including other sites and retail stores). Go to the Video Cards section and you can narrow your search by many categories using the left side menu or whatever you wish to call it. Very very good site. You'll want to a PCI Express card if your computer has PCI Express slot. If not then you'll want to go with a AGP card as long as your computer has a AGP slot. If you computer doesnt have either get one for a PCI slot. Your computer will have a PCI slot, if it doesnt then its WAY to old to be playing those games. Anyway, most important things. Look at the core speed (example: 550 MHz) and the memory speed (example: 800 MHz) thats how fast your graphic card works, Another very important thing is memory. If your going to play more modern games. The recommended requirement for some of the newest game is 256MB (minimum is 128MB). However for a graphics card that will serve you will for years to come get a 512MB card. My dad bought a XFX Geforce 6600 512MB video card from TigerDirect and it easily plays Doom 3 on the highest quality setting (Ultimate i think its called, havent played it in a while). XFX is an extremely good brand. For example, they take the newest Nvidia Cards, and they overclock them. The Geforce 8800 Ultra that was overclocked by Nvideo. Has been overclocked even farther by XFX. Whatever is the ultimate card on the market, they take it and make it even better. Definately a great company.

One of those cards is AGP? I assume you have PCI-Express?

Try this:

You can get the 8600GT(bottom of page) with faster clock speed and DDR3 memory instead of the 8500GT's DDR2 for the same price. The 8500GT is a lot cheaper here too! A lot of other nice cards there too.

1st, I noticed you had an AGP card and a PCI-Express card listed. These are two different types of graphics cards. Your motherboard can only support one or the other. I can't tell by the info that you gave me which type your motherboard supports. The video card that you have now is built into the motherboard. Of the cards listed, the GeForce 7600 GS is the best.

Here is a link to the benchmarks.

First, find out what type of video card your system supports.

You can get it here for $75. They sell both the AGP and PCI-Express versions.
