I'm building a new comp. I want a good quality card that will work without any messing.

Win XP
2.8 AMD cpu
160 gig HD
Abit AN7 GURU mb with built in audio (Realtek ALC658 6 channel AC 97 CODEC..supports S/PDIF Input/Output..NVIDIA SoundStorm with real time Dolby Digital 5.1 encoder)
1 gig ddr ram (maybe 2 gig)
500amp power supply.
Video card ?

Thanks..

athlon 2800+ isnt 2.8 ghz btw...

Unless your buying one badass AMD chip

and its 500watt, not 500 amp

1 gig ddr is plenty, and just buy a nvidia 6600 GT, comes in AGP and PCI-E

I've heard nothing negative about that card, its about 180 bucks

Nvidia Geforce 6600GT! It's cheap, reliable, and provides excellent performance (better than its ATI equivalent the X700). In a lot of cases it even performs as well as the Nvidia Geforce 6800LE which, while a cut-down version of the Nvidia Geforce 6800, is still an entire tier above the Nvidia Geforce 6600GT.

My Fx5600 128mb works fine with GW.
