Well the X800GTO is probibly the best deadacated card that you can get for that price. You may also be able to get a nVidia 6800 but I'm not sure. If I were you Ide save up a bit more $290 ish, and get a nVidia 6800GT. Also if you have a 9600 in there now that means that you have AGP, and therefore will need a AGP card.
