Nvidia GeForce 6600, 6800, 7600 ...

There are several things that need to be knopwn before any upgrade can be commented upon. What is this upgrade beign done on, a laptip or a desktop. What type of available slots does your computer have (PCI, AGP, or PCI-Express). only then can we give some advice.

Id go for the midrange (or ofcourse higher range) of cards. No matter if you buy a cheap/lowrange card now, youll have to invest in a more expensive one later (for instance when the next gw comes out). Its all about how long you want your system to last. I myself always bought cards that were just about up to par with minimum system requirements of games, but if id just bought a fairly good one for like 200 bucks...i wuld have saved myself a lot of money over time.

yes let us know what u have, like agp or pci

synthjeno, I'm pretty sure gw's engine is not going to be updated within the next 3 years or so.
