Would i get Low/Medium/High/Ultra High graphics with this?
Also the comp has a 1GB of ram, should i upgrade to more?

The 1600 is far better and will be able to play with all settings maxed. Another gig of ram wouldn't hurt, it would speed up loading times and get rid of the stutter at the start of a round.

Re: Whats better?

i think perhaps the x1600 could get to medium

your better off getting a x1950 pro AGP, if you can find one (it does exsist)

Re: Whats better?

Is your new comp going to have PCI-E? If it is then those cards wont work.
If it is PCI-E i would get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130017

I didn't notice it was AGP and PCI only though.

its a shame that i cant find the x1950 pro anywhere on newegg or tigerdirect it kinda sucks, its cheaper and better than the 7800GS
