Help!
I need to upgrade my computer from an IGP to a new graphics card - not sure what to get? I have an available AGP slot.
Current system is:
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.0GHz
896MB RAM (2x512MB) PC3200 DDR
Motherboard ASUS P4R800-V Deluxe 1.XX
Bus clock 200MHz
IGP Graphics Radeon 9100
 
I can't afford a new system!!
Not looking for fantastic graphics - something that would be suitable for COD4 or similar?
Would something like the ASUS ATI Radeon HD3650 512MB DDR2 be ok?
Any help appreciated.
 
Thanks for the advice.
I have a HEC-385AD-PT PSU (385W).
Looking to spend aboutr £150 in total or, as you say, it is more cost effective to buy a new system!
Not sure about resolution - whatever works!
My internet speed is only about 1 gig as well so on-line gaming is driven by line speed not graphics.
 
Brilliant help - thank you all.

Looks like a new system is the way forward.
I really appreciate your advice and will get buying bits ASAP.
