This is going in my wife's computer who plays at most, The Sims 2. She was using a Radeon X700 but it is AGP and due to unforeseen problems I am upgrading her computer to a Gigabyte GA-EG31M-S2 with a Core 2 Duo E7200 and Crucial 2GB DDR2 800 RAM.
Anyways, I'm down to finding a video card for under $50 but is still better than a X700 and the onboard motherboard video chipset (Intel GMA 3100). I was checking out the Sapphire 1010 Radeon HD 2600XT 256MB video card but can't find much on it. So would this a decent card for a moderate gaming rig or are there choices better than this for under $50? My knowledge of video cards is somewhat limited and the lack of a true comparison chart makes it harder to chose.
