Video Card Upgrade Suggestions
I've decided to extend the life of my Socket 939 system. Swapping out with a Denmark 2.4 and adding another gig of RAM. So I would like to upgrade my video card as well and I am looking for any suggestions. Don't do a whole lot of gaming but l would like Battlefield 2142 to run smoothly. Specs are in my sig so I guess my question is what card my PSU can handle and is compatible with my MB and which card is the best bang for the buck. I've budgeted around $300 for the card upgrade.
Thanks for any input |

You're a good candidate for that new $250 (MSRP) nVidia card, the 8800 GT
Read up on it here : http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...2209197,00.asp edit : I seem to have forgotten how to spell.
