So I'm updating my Graphix card for AoC and I could use some advice. Here are my specs.
AMD Athalon64X2 5600 + Socket AM2 duel-core processor
Hitachi 250GB 0A33423 Sata2 U300 7200RPM *MB RoHS Hard drive
Gigabyte GA-M62SME-S2 Socket AM@ NVIDIA GfForce 6100 DDR2-800 PCI.e board
4Gigs Corsair 6400 DDR-2
500 Watt power supply
I'm debating looking for a 8800GT or GTX for around $200 or looking for a 9800 for around $300. This is the first machine i've built and I don't have much experience with graphics cards, so I don't know how much of an upgrade the 9800 is from the 8800.
Right now I found a nice 8800GT w/ 640 memory which i'm leaning towards. Thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks Troll. This is what I'm looking at.

How can I tell if that will work with my board? I have 2 PcI slots so I should be good right?
