Hi Everyone -
I am trying to do a cheap upgrade of my old computer (Dell Dimension 4550 - Intel P4 2.53GHz/1 GB Ram) so that I can play some older PC games (i.e. half life 2) and games that do no require incredible gaming rigs (i.e. Sam and Max). I am looking for the best possible card that I can buy in the under $100 range.
I know that I can handle AGP 4X and that my power supply is 250W.
Here is a spec page on my system -

Can you guys please help me out? I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks,
Adam
You might need to upgrade your power supply, because any agp graphics cards in the list Saber gave you will be too strong for it.

lol no matter how best your video card is, with that machine, dont expect that you can run new games todate.

bitboyx2008,
I believe the OP is not in denial here about his gaming expectations ... he's stated he's not after newer titles, he just wants in on some medium gaming action.
