well if u want to play these games ( Lord of the Rings, Call of Duty*, Call of Duty 2, Need For Speed Underground 2.) on low setting then geforce fx5200 or ati radeon9200SE will do the job and they are very cheap (about 30$)

but if u want to play them on medium to high setting then geforce 6600 or 6600GT will do the job, and u can get them for less than 150 USD, and also they will be able to play upcoming latest games of 2006 and 2007 but don't expect to run them on high setting

i forget to tell u that call of duty 2 and lord of the rings battle for midearth will not run fine on 256MB ram, if u add another 256MB or 512MB it will give u big performance boost and these games will load faster.

also if u upgrade ur cpu u will get a performance boost for call od duty 2.

so i suggest that u get a new build rather than upgrading and wasting ur money on this computer.

*Call of Duty 1 will run on high setting if u get fx5200.
