whats your current video card and what is your budget

my current is a intel g33/31 express chipset and my budget is 100 bucks but if that cant be made then the cheapest one thats high enough performance

What resolution are you playing at? Because for $100 for a decent gpu for crisi at medium settings your res will need to be belo 1080p.

Heres the best offers in your range.

i have a 24" 1080p 1920x1200 monitor, i also noticed some of those arent DDR2, but if im making a mistake please correct me if i can use GDDR5 im not a computer geek, so this is all new to me.

$100 is what i would like to cap at, but i can go over if necessary
