Buddy Ardd: Any investment you make in buying a PCI card is total waste (Forget you could use it for 2010 gaming).I would suggest getting a motherboard that have PCI - E slot and then may be look for some card that can meet your needs. Like you said "Money is not a problem" even then I will give you a wise combo to put money into with upgrade paths:Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R : one of the best X58 motherboard with USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0 and comes at half the price of others in the same category (Like asus rampage III Extreme or P6X58D premium and many more). Benchmarks suggest motherboards are not really helping much, it's instead RAM and Card that's beating the scores. So this one is a good motherboard with handful of O.C options (Which you might want to use). RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 3x2GB DDR3 RAM, these offer good latencies and easily one of the best RAM options in there price range.CPU: Intel I7 930 (Anything above this won't make much of difference in gaming).CARD: Now here it! all depends on your pocket! The more you pay the more you get. Here is a descending (in terms of performance) list of some extremely good graphics card.Radeon HD 5970 (Easily best card on the planet)Radeon HD 5870Radeon HD 5850Nvidia GTX 275 (295 and 285 are power hungry and noisy and definitely not good cards.)Nvidia GTX 250 Radeon 5770Some old but good cards:Nvidia GTX 9800Nvidia GTX 8800HDD: Samsung Spinpoint F3PSU: Corsair 750W TX : Gives room to add another card if you want to like Radeon HD 5850, if you go 2x 5970 then 850W. If you don't plan to go Crossfire or SLI then just go with a 650W PSU ( A good quality one, anyone from Coolermaster or Corsair will do).HSF: Too keep your CPU cool Coolermaster Hyper 212 PlusCase: Coolermaster HAF 922!!Again you might think what a waste of an answer but NO PCI Card can run any game that's developed based on 2010 Hardware scene.All the above should cost you anything under 1000 USD. If you go for 5970's though than price will shoo! t pass 1500 USD....Show more
Jackelyn Archut: There's mu! ch too consider.Remember that some card's require a seperate power supplycable hookup and some don't.Prior too graphic's card upgrade,I upgraded my power supply,CPU,Ram,and added a internal fan too keep my internal's cool.You'll do fine,just make sureyou do your reserch.Good Luck.
Elmo Tervo: OMG use your money to buy a new mainboard an processor with PCI express.PCI was modern long ago.
Frederic Engellant: And all you have is a PCI slot? How old is the computer you're using?If you're looking to play some games and all you have is a PCI slot, I'd recommend getting a more modern motherboard so that you can use the latest and greatest.The best thing you're going to get with a PCI videocard is whatever was the best 4 or 5 years ago. Companies pretty much stopped making PCI videocards. If you;re still deadset on a PCI card though, here's some: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Sub......Show more
