What graphics card should I get? I'm looking for something in the range of $100-$200, I want it for gaming with 3d. I want to play: Halo, guild wars, cold war and fable. Can anyone help me?

I recently bought http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=108608

Which is a pretty good deal, can run Counter-Strike Source / Half Life 2 on full settings and 1024*768 without a fuss.

With those games you could probably get a sub-$100 card and get decent performance. I found a 9600 PRO on NewEgg once for around $75 or so, and those things are damn good cards considering how cheap they are.

Also, for GW I recommend you have at least 512 MB of RAM for the smoothest playing experience.

I upgraded FROM a 9600 though, because it just couldnt pack enough punch for me.
