Hello there, I have a Compaq Presario SR1750NX Media Center Edition.

I have an Integrated ATI x200 64Mb I Believe.(I might be wrong, i don't know my computer much) and i was looking at graphics card to play all the latest games such as, Black &White 2, NFSMW etc. and my problem is usually neither of them work or i have to run them on low settings and it really bugs me.

I looked online (Newegg) for graphics cards and i found an ATI Radeon x1300 256MB but i really need help deciding what card to get. I Want a cheap one that lets me run all the latest games on atleast medium quality.

Please Help!!!!
Thanks A bunch.
 
First off, downloads CPU-Z from www.cpuid.com and then look on the mainboard tab, what graphics port does it say? PCIE or AGP? If it is blank than you will have to get standard PCI cards. :(

Secondly, what is your budget?

Will be able to play games from medium to high at a good res.

Or there is the 7600GS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130029

Which is abit more powerful than the 6600gt, but will be more efficient, which is better with a PSU that has a low watt output on the 12v.

Also, your sig is too big. ;)
 
Good choice. Just before you buy it, have a look at your PSU, check that it has 400w total output and a 18amps on the 12v rail. (Doesn't matter if it is slightly (or quite a bit for watts) below if you don't have loads of hdds etc.)
