Older cards - NV 5900XT minimum, an ATI 9800pro would be better, ATI 9800XT better again.

Newer cards? Well, they would start with 6600GT to get a decent upgrade, but you are gonna be stretching your budget with most of these cards.

Advice - Save a little longer and get something worth having instead of blowing good money after bad.

Spending more on a better card is going to make you a lot happier then being disappointed in a cheapy.

Surprisinly easily actually. Its all in windows. Go google for RivaTuner, install it and use it. Very easy to use, you can do clock speeds from it too. Im just sticking with the mods I've done until I've tried CoolBits to get my temps. If I can't get the temps then I won't go any further. Im trying to get it up to being a 6800GT. Seems to be working too, and the scroes are going up!  ;)
