Answer 2

MY opinion

Look at the size of the instruction on the card,
You can get a low cost
card with 256mb of ram but it has a "64 bit instruction" and it will run slower and be more choppy then a card running 128mb of ram and a 256bit instruction..

In other words a card that supports direct x 9 and has a 256 or 128 bit instruction and any amount of ram and preferabley nvidia or ATI then you cant go wrong,,, otherwise if you buy other you may not be able to get the most out of it. (LOW cost in the long run)

Just avoid those 64 bit instructions,, i have had one and i was very unimpressed

here would be a screaming good deal if you use an AGP card

Answer 3

I would definitely check out the Fatal1ty version of the Nvidia geforce 7600GT. It's 130 after rebates and it seems to get the job done! Get two in SLi if your motherboard allows it and make sure your case is big because I hear this card is pretty large in size.
