        You should do do that yes definately, but i'd go for a new card called the X800GT, runs for pretty cheap, 256MB 256bit, faster than 6600GT, you'd be very happy with it.

            Get a 6600GT.

            x700 are alright for the price, but 6600GT would do you MUCH better.

            Or a 6800 128mb, (£110 from www.overclockers.co.uk )

              Spend the extra 50 bucks and get the x800xl . X700 8 pipelines...x800 16 pipelines.

              Then again...we dont' know what your specs are.
