If the 8600GT is DDR3, they're the same. If not, the HD4650.

+1 The 8600GT would be a better option. Neither will provide enough horsepower to max out or play it at high settings, but the 8600GT is a bit faster.

At that I'd grab an HD5770. If you know how to overclock, the 5770 will hit 1kcore and 1.2k mem, which is fantastic (provided you use a decent model supporting voltage adjustments..think MSI/ASUS).

The hd5770 or gts 250 1gb are both good cards.

haha shadow you beat me to it. +1 on the 5770.

The 5770 is a great option for those looking to buy a new card to keep an old one together for awhile longer...
