My sister needs a new video card - right now she's using the onboard graphics that come with the Biostar 6100 motherboard.
She only wants to play Sims 2, but here's the thing - she's downloaded all kinds of models and stuff for the game and has it running at highest settings (not highest resolution but highest settings) and she's currently having to deal with really crappy FPS because of this. She refuses to turn down the graphical detail though, and would rather spend her 70$ on a video card.
So that's the situation. ~70-80$ to spend on a graphics card (this includes shipping), and it needs to be PCI-E. Can anyone help me out here?
Edit: I think I remember seeing a pretty good deal on the GeForce 7300 - anyone have any idea on whether or not the card's suitable for the job?
