whats your price range?
I would go for Nvidia cards since they are most popular and powerful
If your price range is about £300 (dont knw how much is in USDollars) i would go for the BFG Geforce 8800GTS..
For a cheaper card like around £160 - Geforce 7900GT
I had ati once but it sucked lol.. maybe it's just my pc sucked too much

$140 hmm.... in UK thats about £72.
Not enough to get a good graphics card but i guess with £20 extra, you can get the Geforce 6800 - i got that!
It's not bad performance though it does lag when trying to run high setting games like NFS carbon lol..
Games like World of Warcraft, Counter-strike Source and HL2 can run like a charm on high settings with HDR effects :)
So... my conclusion is to save that extra cash for something that can last you for a long time..

I just got a computer for christmas its a dell 4300 about 5-6 years old. It has a p4 intel 1.4ghz and 512ram. I don't want to put alot of money into the computer so I was just going to get a decent video card and a new power supply because it only is a 250watt which can't power a new video card.
I was looking to spend 130-140$USD.
Since it is only 512 ram and I can't upgrade because that is all the mobo supports I was hoping that a 512mb video card would help the preformance in some way.
The PNY 6800gt is DDR3 256mb were the x1650 512mb is DDR2. These are just two cards im looking at can anyone suggest a better video card for the money preferably 512mb for 130-140$USD.
Thank You
