Any suitable graphics card for Pentium 4 2.40 ghz 512 RAM?, Just any cheapest and fine enough to fix my computer's HD video problems.

Spanking? Lol! Nah, all replies were very polite. It's just that everyone comes to the realization that it's time for him to get a new PC. I wouldn't advise putting money into such an old computer, it will be hard to find parts and they will cost more.

hang-the-9 made a very good suggestion, if he's on a tight budget, he could spend 150$-200$ and get a used PC with a dual-core CPU plus 2 GB of RAM and it will outperform his P4 and at least be able to play HD content.

Or if he has more money he could get a brand new entry-level PC for around 500$.

What kind of slot do you have for the video card on your motherboard? Probably AGP I guess?

But I agree with others, Pentium-4 is probably too weak to play HD videos without problems anyways, so adding a video card might not solve your issues.

I agree with you, I remember having a AMD Athlon-XP 2100+ and it was similar to Pentium-4 in term of performance, and I couldn't play full HD videos back in the days, that was big argument for me to get a new PC lol!
