Getting a new graphics card
 
#2
I cannot in good conscience reccomend any ATI card.

Also, the X700 is available in PCI Express or AGP flavors.

for AGP, the best you can get is the GeForce 6200 -

for PCI Express, I would be pickled tink with this very attractive GTS 250 -

Please note, that is not a 'high end' card, retailing for about USD $150, but it's more powerful than the video card in my machine, and I play City
of Heroes with maximum pretty factor, at 1290x1080. It supports HDCP, which is bullshit (DRM in my video stream is morally offensive) - BUT that means that it
also supports HDMI, which means dead easy integration into a home entertainment or big-screen video output.
