    budget?

    agp or pci-e slots on your motherboard? look inside your computer or get CPUZ if you dont know

    -edit-

    If looking for pci-e, try the X800gto, x700, or if you have money, x850gt

    If looking for AGP, try the x800gto plus

    recomendations given cost -

    PCI-e: 6600, X800GTO and then 7600GT(or x850XT/ XT PE depending on what you cna find it at, all three are neck/neck performance wise and about the same price, i'de lean towards 7600GT though better overclocking and less energy used)

    each offers about the same bang/$ just determine the performance and $$$ you have/are willing to spend

    AGP: x700 and then x850pro
