I'm considering getting a new graphics card for an older computer and I'd like to know what is the upper limit of what will work with my computer. I'm not looking for a blazing fast card to play the latest games, but rather one that will play games from say 5 years ago.
I currently have a 32 MB Nvidia Quadro2 MXR/EX that can handle games like Star Wars: KOTOR, Hitman 2, GTA: Vice City, Splinter Cell and Half-Life 2 on the lower settings, so really I'm just looking for the next step or two up from that, but I'd like to know what my options are, as my motherboard and other specs are dated and upgrading them isn't an option. Also looking for something under $75, but compatibility is the major concern.
Here are my system specs:
Dell Precision 340 motherboard
1.7 GHz Pentium 4
AGP 2.0 4x Slot
768 MB RAM
250 Watt PSU
