For £35 you can get a Radeon 9200 SE. Tis a decent card, plays HL2, Farcry, Doom3 on medium to high settings depending on the rest of your system specs. Highly recommended on that sort of budget.

I bet they don't have an AGP slot either.

Looks like onboard graphics. Bad luck.

erm, right click on your desktop and click 'properties', then click on the 'settings' tab.

You should see something like "default monitor on ......", where '......' is the name of your graphics card.

It's unlikely that you'll get a decent graphics card for £30.
Even if it supports vertex/pixel shading, it's likely to suffer from crippling slowdown in-game.

How much RAM do you have and what speed is your CPU?

Well, most cards nowadays are DX9 so...

What are you using at the minute anyway?
