1. Why did you post this twice?
2. Your link does not work.

You may want to read this, especially the benchmarks on the following pages (see on the bottom of the first page). This card does not look like your typical card for gaming.

haydosrulz, am I looking at the right link? I see a Radeon 9250 GPU. That chip is so old, ATI only shows it on their list of discontinued products. After the Radeon 9000 series, there was the X1000 series, then Radeon HDs. There have been Radeon HD 2000, 3000, and now 4000 series. So, a 9250 is many generations old and discontinued and way overpriced!. Look for a Radeon HD 3870 or 3850 for a powerful, modern chip at a reasonable price point.
