Upgrade Graphics Card to play MMO games?

Hi everyone, I am new to the scene of upgrading PCs but I've done few research and decided to upgrade my pc.



Full PC Specs:

Intel Pentium 4 Processor 3.20GHz

1GB PC2700 333MHz DDR

200GB 7200rpm Ultra ATA/100 HD

128MB nVIDIA GeForce FX5600 Graphics Card

GigaBit Ethernet TX/1000Base-TX Ethernet (RJ-45)

295 watts max. / 100-120V ~4.7A (50/60Hz)

ACPI 1.0 Compliant



So my question is what graphics card I update so I can run Warhammer Online or any other MMO at high settings? Please keep in mind my computer uses an AGP graphics card and I'm not sure about the watt issue.



I am willing to spend %26lt;$200 on upgrades. I just a graphics card to run MMOs at high quality with little lag then later just buy a new CPU altogether.



Thanks for all the help!Upgrade Graphics Card to play MMO games?

Well, for under $200, you really aren't going to be able to upgrade your motherboard, since it also require upgrading your CPU, video card, and RAM, since they are all out of date styles of connections. And possibly power supply.



With that being the case, I don't think Warhammer or Age of Conan at high are likely out of your ability. About the top you could upgrade your video card (because it's AGP) to would be around an nVidia 6800, and that's still considerably out of date. Something like that could run older MMOs like WoW pretty darn well, but nothing new.



I'd seriously recommend storing up some more money and doing a full CPU/RAM/Motherboard/Videocard upgrade (or system replacement). A dual-core CPU, 667 MHz DDR2 RAM, and a PCI-Express card would be a huge upgrade, could keep you capable of playing anything for the next few years well, and only be about $500.
