Ok, before a graphics card recommendation, we need to know what resolution your gaming monitor is, what settings you like to use (medium/high/don't care really), and what games you want to play. Obviously a 9600gt isn't playing the latest games with high settings but is that something you want to do with your new card? Also, what is your approximate budget and what country/where do you want to shop for the GPU? And very important, what is your power supply (PSU) make/model/wattage?
