^^ Dude, if he's actually using that board, he's out of luck.

He's using the old Pentium 4 socket 478 and in that pic, it doesn't seem to have a AGP or a PCI-E slot.

They're just regular PCI's. So hopefully, that's not his mobo because I don't recall seeing any socket 478 mobo's anymore that's on sale.

It's almost impossible for ANY PCI cards to handle modern games. Your best bet is probably the x1550 and the 6200.

You said you bought this "NEW" computer? Was it previously owned? Because It pretty much has outdated parts already.

If you have to get a PCI vid card as people have previously said then its not worth your money or time to get one. PCI cards are the slowest cards possible that you can get and are way out-dated. The fastest PCI card could barely even handle any new games if at all. You are better off buying or building a new pc.
