I currently own a Dell Dimension B110 that was customized. Unfortunately I don't have a APG slot for graphics cards like RADEON and some other brands, so I'm looking for a card that works with a PCI slot (not PCI-E/Express) and will play games good like Final Fantasy 11 and World of Warcraft. Someone suggested to me that I get a Geforce 6200 or 6600 but when I look on something like this:

It comes up with dozens of different ones inside the 6200 or 6600. Which one should I get? As long as its PCI compatible with my computer I will be happy. ^_^
 
Well, you can't get the nVidia 6xxx series cards in PCI versions. Since PCI for video cards is a pretty old technology, you won't be able to find newer cards that are PCI compatible. I'd suggest going with a Radeon 9250 128MB, as that is the most advanced card for the PCI slot.

No, it's actually one of the lower performing ones.

The best card you can get is the nVidia FX5700LE for PCI.

Oh yep, my bad, I forgot about that card. The FX5600 would be a good bet too, I've heard.

Actually there's a 6200 PCI version. But yes i believe the 5700LE is the best PCI card available out there.
