Hello, I think my old Nvidia 7600 GT 256MB video card has died so was looking for a video card to upgrade the system a little but don't want to spend to much money on the card as I plan on building a new computer in a year or so as my current computer is going on five years old. Any advice from the community is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
