I want to at least run Battlefield 2 on it. Ive narrowed it down to two cards on two sites http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102730 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2427400&sku=B52-7856 Other input is helpful

Except for the fact that its PCI and I need AGP I wish I actually read things. I would take http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125281  then.

"Cons: The card gets very hot during gaming. I keep the case open and set a small fan blowing directly on the card, otherwise it overheats in an hour and the computer crashes. The card is fine if you're just surfing the internet or something though." Just because of that, I'd go with the GeForce. I've always had GeForce video cards, and never had a problem with any of them. tranlover Posted at 8:18 am on June 22, 2009 The first says gets very hot in gaming so I would steer away from that one lyfsux420 Posted at 8:17 am on June 22, 2009 I prefer ATI over Nvidea.   marshmellowman Posted at 8:17 am on June 22, 2009 I'd go with the ATI, seems more future proof. I don't think there's a big distinction to be honest, I'm just an ATI guy. Milky Way kid Posted at 8:17 am on June 22, 2009 Radeon graphics card.
