If I Buy a better Video Card...
Will games like F.E.A.R. not be so jerky?

3. What is your budget on this card?
ZipZoomFly has the Nvidia 6600GT card for $149.00. With something called
"RivaTuner", you can unlock locked pipelines on it, effectively making it a 6800GT.

5. Well...
Goto http://www.dealtime.com and search on the Nvidia 6800GT card, if you have a computer that used the AGP slot for the video card or the 7800GT if you have PCIExpress for your video slot. You can comparison shop and find the best deal on some great cards.
