Is it a waste to put money into this thing? I'm probably going to be stuck with it for at least another year and would like to know what's the strongest GPU it could actually use. Currently it's running on a borrowed card so something needs to be done soon.
Ideally I'd like to play some older games and keep my dual monitors for regular computing. I could go up to $150 if it would make a huge difference. Plan is to go the eBay route.
