I'd say try a Radeon 9550 or 9600. Anything better will probably be too tough on the PSU, and overkill for those games anyway. Hell, WC3 doesn't really need anything besides 32MB onboard.Last edited by Yawgm0th; 11-17-2005, 11:52 PM.

A 9600XT would be a very fast card for that system and you can even get the 9600XT All In Wonder that has a TV tuner and a FM tuner. Then you could have the TV out. They are getting cheap.GIgabyte GA-990FXA-UD3

That's because 3DMark uses almost entirely the GPU. A GeForce 2 is not a useful card any relatively modern gaming, so you should expect to get a low score.

Sure, it's hurts your finger doesn't it?
In all seriousness, I doubt you have hard drive heat problems. I meant that your hard drive was just too slow. My 1GHz Athlon system uses an 80GB 7200RPM and 512MB of RAM, which is why it feel so responsive and performs everything acceptably.
