Hi All,
I want to finally put a video card in an older (~around 4 years or so) computer now that my son has taken to World of Warcraft. (So he doesn't totally monopolize the new build I just completed!)

Windows XP
Pentium D 2.80 GHz
Intel 82945G Express chipset
1 GB memory
Asus P5LD2-VM Mobo
400 w PSU
Slots available--one PCI Express x16 and one PCI Express x1

I intend to add another 1 Gig of memory. But was wondering if anyone can recommend a video card for as well under $100 as I could get away with. (Any other upgrade suggestions welcome, too, of course.)

Thanks for any ideas,
Larry
