Any good graphics/video card for gaming?

Hey I need a graphics card cause im getting very frustrated with my 4 year old computer, and i don't wanna buy a new computer so does anyone know a good graphics/video card for gaming? (is graphics card and video card the same thing? lol)



I play WoW and Counter strike source, and i get about 30 fps on WoW and on counter strike source i get about 60-90 fps but that's because i put my graphics really low and i just turned the graphics to the best and i miss playing like that but i only get 20 fps like that. I basically want not to just be able to run both those games, but to atleast have a GOOD average of about 150 fps in both those games atleast cause im tired of annoying fps lags and disconnecting from both games :(.



So if anyone knows a good graphics/video card for about 150$ but no more than 200$ the max :D



THANK YOU!!!|||What is your current CPU/processor? What's your current graphic card?



Right now the best gaming cards in your price range are the ATI Radeon 4870 or Nvidia GTX 260, which cost around $125-$140.



BUT.... Those cards require a good 550W-600W power supply. If you're currently got some dinky 300W unit inside the case, that won't work for either of those cards.



Moreover, those cards are overkill for games like WoW and Counter-Strike. A $75 card like the Radeon 4670 can run those games on very high if not maxed, and doesn't require a power supply upgrade.



To use $100-$125 cards like the GTS250 and Radeon 4850 you should have a solid 450W power supply, which costs $50-$75 on average. That might be where your budget takes you- some on the psu, some on the card.
