    I have ATI Radeon 9600xt . One of the results you would like to get from a card is a god frame rate. My is giving me all my needs.(45-55) But it is always the question of money. RadarMan has something better and I am sure he paid more. I paid a year ago in the web 185 us dollar and I believe you can get it now chipper. It is always a question what else you have

    Oh ya. What card you have today? What frame rate you have today at the default flight (Seattle Tacoma)
    If you have not an old hard drive. Your question is a very common question in the forum and so far most of the time RadarMen or TTT are the "answer men". I only can quoit him on that matter in link:

    I don't think if there will be somebody in the forum who will give a direct recommendation what to buy (maybe what not) but some directions how to get the right answer. Personally if I would be you instead of upgrading to 1G I would invest in a better card than fx5200 and even a better card with 126m instead of a lower card with 256m
