    and could you guys also tell me if it will be able to run the following games smoothly and beautifully:

    >Half-Life 2
    >SWAT 4
    >Battlefield 2

    its a pretty good card. 1 of those games might be laggish on graphics but for the most part it should run fine

    It's a pretty nice card, a little out of date, but it should run those pretty well. You might wanna try something a little newer.
    Like XFX PVT44PRA GeForce 6200TC
    BTW did Nvidea change to XFX??

    Or you could try the ATI Radeon's, they're nice and cheap.
    ATI RADEON 9800PRO

    Yes, it should run most games.

    But generally, if you want to play ALL the games average, no sluggish, go for a Geforce FX 5900, it rocks and doesn't cost much.

    If you are a core gamer like me, go for a Geforce FX 6600 GT

    It rocks... And breaks a hole in your pocket, LOLS ;)

    I have a GeForce FX5200. It's a good card, although there are better cards by now. I got mine more then a year ago, so...

    XFX is just one of the many fabricators (like there's MSI , Clud3D , Sapphire) that makes cards made on nVidia reference design.

    Fabricators can adjust things like coolers , chip layout , and such ,
    but in the hart it will still be a nVidia Geforce.

    In this way , you will find a Club-3D Geforce 6800GT , Sapphire Geforce 6800GT , XFX Geforce 6800GT , ... which are all just nVidia Geforce 6800GT's ;)
