You know what is more annoying then having a crappy graphics card? Is getting one that is only slightly better but not that great.
See this story starts in January when I decided once and for all to buy a Graphics card, but I was stupid enough to tell my mum to buy it instead, she goes and buy a 100$ one (I would have brought a 300$ which probably would have been better). A GeForce9400 Graphics card.
Now I thought this would be the end of my troubles, and okay Fallout 3 now loads (But goes to desktop without warning at times especially after playing for hours), Oblivion doesn't crash as often (But still does) and the Sims 2 seemed to be fine (But still runs slowly, especially with large family). Now my brother and his fiancee (At the time, yes the same ones mentioned in the Wedding post) helped me put this card in, my sister in law told me that it might not work better since there are graphics card that don't run games.
And apparently it's this one, it doesn't run The Sims 3 (I haven't got that yet but I have heard), now I am gonna get another card and this time will be by myself and I will pay 700$ for the best one I can find if I have to (And runs even top end games smoothly, also I shouldn't tell anyone especially my sis who probably have a problem with it and tittletale to my mother>.> until I get it).
But my bro and his newly wife are on thier honeymoon and won't be back for ten days, I think around 29th June they might be back, or the 30th. However I will wait a week after they return before asking them to help me put a new graphics card in (If I have one by then).
So if anyone knows the best graphics card (For games like Fallout 3, Oblivion, The Sims 2 & 3,, I don't know what graphics card are used for other then that) or know someone who knows then please tell me.

Well it also depends on your system. How much RAM you got, Your processor speed, One of the most important things is to make sure your power supply will run the new card you plan to get.
If I knew more about your Pc I could suggest a few cards for you that would run those games.
True, someone gave me help on that actually and how to check my specsl, whhen I do that I can post it here if you like so you can have a look
Sounds fine. I'll be waiting lol.
But yeah, I know how hard it can be figuring all of it out and there's so much to it.
I used to put computers together all the time, For myself and others so I know what it takes.
