Answer:
It is directly dependent upon two things 1. Your Need (Graphics design, normal gamer, extreme gamer) 2. Your budget. I would recommend HIS Iceq 4 HD 4850 and XFX GTS 250, both cards are awesome medium level cards and provides the excellent bang for buck. (performance / value). But remember u would require a new power supply minimum 450-500 watt with these cards. So thats going to add to ur budget. other wise u can go for 9400GT, 9500GT for lower budgets. Yes apart from HD4850 and HD4870 i dont recommend ATI go for NVIDIA.

increase your ram too 2 gig your processor isnt being used to its full potential, a 256bit graphic card no matter the make will be all you need but most widely used brands are radeon and geforce which have a lot of support for them. Make sure 256bit or better!!! most modern games will struggle with anything below 128bit graphic card. Change your graphic setting to best performance through your graphic card settings unless you have a 128bit or better
Can this computer run that game? ========================= Run this program and click the red "We Recommend" where appropriate. http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest Note Halo2 is demanding on the operating system, see what it recommends Crysis Warhead is demanding on the video card, see what it recommends. Far Cry and FEAR is demanding on the processor. WOW is a general all rounder, not as demanding as above. When you see the Pass result at the top, look carefully as it shows the minimum to the best performance for that game., even though it pass, it may not be enough for maximum settings., so check the resultant Green chart ruler line at the top. Click the Red fail tab as well. Note: Sims 3 is listed under T.
