So, I have a older PC...a Pentium 4 3Ghz with a ATI Radeon X850 video card. I believe it is connected via PCI-e. Now I am looking to purchase a new video card to run Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. Do you think this is a good decision? Not sure if I should just wait to buy a new computer...probably not for another year or so. or buy a new video card or just stick with my x850 video card? If I was to purchase a new video card, I would like to stay under 250 dollars. Any advise would be much appreciated!

I'm terribly sorry, but ANY graphics will be limited by your CPU. For $250, you can buy yourself a new Mobo+CPU+GPU.
