[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 727344, member: 38864"] Half the problem up front is Windows Vista. I've not used it extensively myself, I must concede, but everything I've read says that the OS itself is graphically intensive and a huge drain on your resources by itself. Assuming your HP is relatively new then (since it's running Vista), I'm highly disinclined to believe you can get away with spending "under 50 easy". You'd likely be getting a card comparable to what you have now. Without knowing more precisely what it is you have, it's hard to make a recommendation, although VI's suggestion probably will work out for ya. [/QUOTE]
