lots of things to consider... how much you wish to spend, your using a AGP card so you can't go but so high. You also need to watch how much your power supply can put out vs the size of the card you get. Then you have the bottleneck effect from the processor if the card is too fast.

I only using cheap power supply which no brand RM30 +/- only . So i'm not sure my power enough or not . N i planning to Buy PowerColor ATI x1650PRO 512MB , is that good ? If i only buy graphic card i feel the budget is okie , but if buy display card n power supply then feel that new pc more worth hehe.

Maybe you need to get up to 2gb ram, and you can get a 8800gt.

This would be a great choice for your setup and supports dx10

A very good friend of mine, put together a rig, just to play Crysis.

Mobo : Asus Striker Extreme
CPU : Intel Q6600 Quad Core
CPU Fan: Zalman Ultra Quiet 9700NT
RAM: OCZ Reaper 800 MHz 4GB (2x2GB)
DVD: LG DVD-RW SATA 18X
Hard Drive: 4 x WD 250GB KS 7200 rpm in RAID 5 array
Video Card: 2 x BFG NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS OC 512MB PCIe 2.0 SLI
Case: Antec Nine Hundred
Power Supply: Thermaltake Toughpower 750W

I found a store that has all that for about $2,500.00 CND, tax included.

Wish I had one.

That's quite a nice build, but if use 8800gt should be better.
