My brother has this Dell workstation computer as his computer and would like a video card better than the workstation card that he has in there. Things only fit in one slot as the AGP slot is right next to the bigass CPU assembly.

I was looking on Newegg and haven't had any experience with the few brands there (besides Diamond and BIOSTAR and tbh, fxck BIOSTAR).

Anybody have any suggestions as what to get? He can only spend up to $80 including shipping and it would be better to spend less than that.

Thanks in advance,
Anthony

I've got an X1600 in this machine, and it's good enough to play WoW on medium/high settings. :)

Amazingly enough he doesn't like WoW anymore. :D

He actually wants to play stuff like Fallout 3, Crysis (his current card does Low pretty well), etc. He's been living off of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Clear Sky for the past few months and is tired of them. Thanks though, I'll keep that in mind.

:eek:

Well, I dont do much else for gaming, but since my WoW subscription is about to tank, and I'm broke, I'll be back into Guild Wars and/or Titan Quest pretty soon.. hopefully this system will be playable!

I found an ATI HD3650 that will fit on Newegg for $80. My bro and I both agree that it's better just to spend a bit extra for something that'll last longer as he won't be able to afford to build a computer until he gets a job (he's 14).
