An x300 will not give you decent frame rates. You can use it and set it to the hgihest settings and it will give you the image above and it will look great., but the low FPS will make gameplay very sluggish, if not impossible.

I'd go with a 6600 gt. A 6800 GT is not out of the question either.

"The Therapist"   ........ gonna need him soon.

47 huh?

put a 2 in front of that figure and we'll talk some more.

If you want to have soso graphics..... then we could reduce that figure a little.
