My girlfriend bought a pc for word processing and surfing, so the specs are a poor:


1000 processor
128RAM
Windows XP
and the graphics card is a Intel display adapter

I'm looking to buy a new graphics card, to play todays new games like battlefield 1942, and classics like medal of honour.

I'm also hooked up to broadband, so am looking at online gaming aswell.

1st Question: is the processor and ram up to running todays games? if not (and i suspect the ram is not) what do you recommend?

2nd: What card do you recommend? I only has a PCI slot, and i'm limited to cash (£100 max) I know i'm askin alot.

I have seen this card:

64MB PCI NVidia GeForce2 MX400 128-bit SDRAM

for £50 new

Is this a good deal for me?

Thanks for all your help guys.

Cheers

Mark
