Hi, I need help deciding on what Videocard to upgrade to. Right now I have a 32MB Radeon 128 pro. I'm looking to start playing guild of wars and Every now and then I play the sims 2. I don't play the sims 2 that much due to the fact it's so slow with my pos videocard. My budget is about $120. I'm running Pentium 4, 2.80GHz And I have 1GB of ram. So I'm sure the lack of speed is due to my videocard.
 
i agree with monkeysims, but depending on your personnal needs, maybe you could raise some more money and get the geforce 6800xt. they usually go for around 150$, but are way faster then the x1600
 
Agreed. If you want to keep the price under $80 a 6600 is much better than that 6200. Don't be fooled by the 512MB of Video Memory - it's completely useless on that card.

The X1600Pro is a better card, of course (and I believe that newegg has the same one for $5 cheaper)

You can get them at $130, and they're not a bad choice due to their unlockability. At stock speeds, though, the performance difference isn't that significant.

Oh, and make sure your power supply can handle the new card
