Okay that's a help ^_^ b

at that price range (budget less than $50) the GDDR3-equipped 9500's actually do compete very well and is probably going to be one of the better options. This Gigabyte 9500 GT would be a better option than the one you linked. A comparable ATI card is about an HD4550, but they seem to lower performers compared to the 9500 GT.


if you're willing to bump to the next price range ($50-$100) you get a few better options.

• The GDDR3-equipped 9600GSO, there's GDDR2 ones but their performance is slower, is a solid midrange card and ought to hand Aion just fine at medium, medium-high at that resolution.
• A comparable ATI card is an HD4670, which trades blows in benchmarks and games with the 9600's in general.

at an even further bump in price (around $100), gets you very good cards for the money. again, make sure at least GDDR3, but at these cards lower GDDR levels are rare.

• G92-core cards, take your pick: 8800gts 512/8800gt/9800-series/GT250
• HD4850's <= excellent card for the money

edit----------------
well that's gonna be tougher, especially at that pricepoint. BB tends to have the video card prices as much as 1.5-3x their online e-tailer competitors. if you can find a clearance deal, they're tough to beat but otherwise their prices suck out loud.

All the ones I mentioned are PCI-Express cards. At last check your motherboard chipset supports PCI-Express and shouldn't have oddball slots (AGP, legacy PCIx, legacy ISA, etc) so you should be good to go and it should be easily identifiable.

If you're unsure about PCI-Express 2.0 which appears on some of the cards, it's the same as PCI-Express 1.0 (original), except it has a larger bandwidth and is fully backwards compatible.
In your application it won't matter either way as you likely won't be anywhere near saturating the PCIe 1.0 bandwidth

You have bad luck with finding cards my friend... That's a lowend card intended for HTPC's, not for gaming.
I would get one of these if i were you : MSI R4670-MD512 Radeon HD 4670 512MB/GIGABYTE GV-R467D3-512I Radeon HD 4670 512MB , i had the Gigabyte card myself and i can say that it a great bang for buck , and at your resolution you def. don't need 1GB , it will play most games on high settings
Edit: also noticed the price of that 4350 , and was shocked to say the least...

as i was saying earlyer can you post a card from best buy because i want to get it today but the power supply it needs has to be at most 300w

Akisame

Bestbuy has the worst choice i've ever seen , and everything is overpriced... My advice is not to get parts in a hurry ,or you'll end up paying twice ,because you didn't explore all the options available to you at the time. But it's up to you. If you're a gamer , and want a powerful card ,you def won't get anything worthy from bestbuy in the <100$ area...

You do realize that the first card it AGP , and you need Pci-e?
What's with the rush anyways?
