I have:
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E4300 (1.8GHz, 800 FSB)
3GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz- 2DIMMs
nvidia GeForce 7300 LE
Intel® 965 Express
I really need to upgrade the video card. I have a PCI-E slot. My goal on this upgrade is to have the whole computer become obsolete at the same time, in time for my next upgrade. This move should hold me for about another year. Which card would I need to get? give me list...

For one year use, here are some options that would give significantly better performance than your slow 7300LE:
Cheap= 7300GT ddr3 or ATI X1650 Pro
Better= 7600GT

HD 2900 pro $279 best bang for buck out there
Overclock that E4300 by setting the FSB to 300 to make sure it doesn't bottleneck.
And are you sure you have 2 dimms with 1.5gbs each as I have never seen one.

Here are some pages with PCI-E video cards:

I recommend any EVGA card because they are the best for overclocking. That is what the guy from Tiger Direct says about them. Hope this helps.
