Hey everyone, first off I'm new to the forum. So take it easy on me here ;)

Anyway, I wanted to install a graphics card on my PC. Just wanted to get some opinions on this, and any steps to install it would be great.

My motherboard.

My gf works at best buy so I'll get it a little cheaper than that even...... I just want some improvement for light games, and want the options of connectivity over just 1 vga plug like I have now.
 
No need to double post.

Unless shes paying under $100, don't get it, it's a complete waste of money. Im guessing she has a low end socket 478 chip, so I would just get something like the x700 for $50 or so.

Im almost positive that it will work, since 8x and 4x are compatible.

ya I didnt mean to post in the sound forum............ I'll keep checking out some cards........

Whatever I do end up getting, will it automatically overwrite the integrated graphics?
 
I'm looking at some cards in the $50.00 price range now........some hav RCA, S-Video and VGA out, now if I plug the VGA into my computer and the S-Video into my tv, would that put the same image on two screens or could I use one as an extended desktop?

Yeup Toronto Canada, and I have a Tigerdirect outlet about 20 mins from my house so that would be the easiest for me, since Best Buy has a very limited selection of cards.

I called and the last one I posted is in stock.
