well I am running on a Dell Dimension 2400 desk top computer; this being a rather crap computer to play any game on. Well over the past few months I have been looking for a new graphics card to upgrade to. Someone just recently gave me a link to a card that would work fine with my computer and give me some rather nice graphics. Well the day before I went to order the card the link broke and instead of taking me to the card I wanted it gave me a list of cards. Now with my limited knowledge of computers I have no Idea which card to get. It would really suck to end up ordering a card and it not work. So would any of you happen to know which card or cards would be compatible with my crap computer?

Link to list of cards:

AGP's no longer the latest tech, but the best current AGP card is this:

No longer do I need any help. I got back in touch with the guy who gave me the link. He gave me another one. The card I'm about to get is only $57 and runs everything on high with Halo. A good deal considering Halo PC is just about all I play these days.

Ahhh lol it is the Fx5500 lol tell me why it sucks? I'm not really looking for something flashy. I just want to be able to run halo on high and be able to actually see the following:

Shine
Blood
Bullet holes
Shadows
Proper textures
Light
A colored visor
ect...
