First post.
I am shoppin around for advice, so please forgive me. I am lookin for an upgrade to my current video card, in hopes of getting a little more power out of gaming until I can upgrade my PC.
At current, I have a Dell Dimension 8200, P4 2.0, 512 rdram, Nvidia GeForce3 Ti 200 64mb. I 'think' this is some of my mobo-
Dell Part Number: 8G894
This Dell Dimension 8200 Pentium 4 Socket 478 motherboard features:
1 - AGP connector (4X/2X)
4 - PCI connectors
2 - USB connectors
Socket 478 for Intel Pentium 4 CPU 1.5GHz and up
4 - Memory slots (PC800 non-ECC RDRAM)
25-pin Parallel Port Connector
9-pin Serial Port Connector
2 - IDE Connectors
and I believe this link will show my current video card, scroll down to second card.

The rdram would be a nice way to upgrade, but is hard to come by, and expensive! So, am lookin to upgrade my card, but not very knowledgable about them. Problems stem from congested areas on online games such as WoW city zones, and some single player games such as Morrowind, which 'freezes' up a lot.
Is there another card that will help with this to any degree?
I hope to keep this machine for a few more months, and would like to up the gameplay friendliness a bit if possible. I just don't know which card will fit.
