IF you are not going to be upgrading your MoBo / CPU / Ram combo any time soon, then you might as well find a nice GF3. You can get a really good one for dirt cheap right now and realistically that's about right for your current setup. A GF4 would be a waste as your CPU will bottleneck it quite a bit.

IF you are planning on upgrading your MoBo / CPU / Ram soon, then get a GF4 Ti4xxx, an ATI 9500 (or higher) or wait for the new NV30 cards to come out. Get the 128MB version and any of these cards will give you nice headroom and excellent gameplay on the newer systems.
