The current one i have I can only play on low, and i lag like hell with those settings. I want a video card that's priced from $80-$150. Nothing too expensive, but good enough so that It's not a POS. The current video card i have atm is, XFX Radeon HD 4350 1GB. Any Suggestions? Link to comment

If you are considering the 9800GT, might aswell get a 4850, about the same price, and 4850 is better. Also what brand is the power supply? If it is not a quality PSU, it might not provide enough power, despite being advertised as a 650 watt, it might only deliver 400. This is, again, only if it is not a quality power supply.

Yes. I ahree but getting the 5770 Radeon with 2xDVI ports it above his price range. (10-20 bucks more) But it is a great card for the price... AND if you dont need it at this moment, wait a week or two because they might have a rebate on these!! So if you do go with a HD Radeon HD 5770, you will need a PSU with atleast 450Watts. Here is a list of some 5770 cards http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=%205007%2040000048&Description=5770&bop=And&ShowDeactivatedMark=False Hope this helps Link to comment
