Hi, I have an emachines 5220 desktop pc (bought from PC World about 2 ys ago) with 1gb of DDR. the sims 2 plays ok on it (but I have to use the medium settings for the graphic stuff). I want to get a new graphics card for the sims 3 when it comes out. Could anyone recommend a graphics card that will run on my machine? I have no idea at all of the different graphic cards so if you could be specific I would be really grateful!!! Thank you, Jessica
