It's good enough for now.
It doesn't need upgrading.
OneWithFire:
Even with it's processor?
Starcraftman:
Well the processor you have in that computer is crap. No point upgrading your graphics card unless you get a substantially more powerful processor.

Looks like the classic case of someone being short on budget for a comp and buying all worthless crap and then buying an uber graphics card thinking it would make the whole thing awesome. You shoulda just bought like a 4800 or 9800, or even an 8800, and then getting a dual core with decent clock speed and nice ram and an 80 dollar mobo with at least one pci x16 slot. Also what is your PSU, I wouldn't go under 600 watts if you are going to have a card that power hungry, 800 would be a safer bet.

From what OneWithFire said in his posts, I'm pretty sure he did not by the GTX 280 yet. Also, the GT 220 IS a PCIe graphics card, which means technically he could get a GTX 280, even though it would be a extremely handicapped idea.
