GeForce 9500 GT 1GB PCI for only $90.
Edit: Wait wait what? You have PCI-E? Oh, then you got plenty of options then.

Okay... But, I'm still restricted to 9500GT and under, right?

No. Being that you actually have PCI-Express, your choices are a lot greater and higher.

It also depends on his power supply...also, not having PCI-E 2.0 will bottleneck any higher end cards.

Okay. So, if a card is PCI-E, it will work on my computer?

Okay... How do I check if I have PCI-E 2.0 or not?
And, the power supply. How do I check that?
Sorry for the stupid questions. I don't really know anything about computer hardware.
