I’m in need of a new Video card for my computer and I need to know where I can get a good one(one that will allow me to play game like World of Warcraft, Left 4 Dead, and any other Big Time game for PC), Heck even Candy Mountain Massacre won’t work on my computer.

I found these ones, and I want to know if they are good enough for what i’m trying to do:

So if those aren’t good, can someone lead me to some that would be really good, but that I don’t have to spend a ton of money for. Also, is there a way to check how much DDR-memory my computer currently has?
Imuust picked PCI cuz I don’t know what the difference is…
what I meant to say is: I just picked PCI because I didn’t know what the difference was between the different ones.

If I install more ram into my computer, will it make it run faster(ie: will web pages load faster,?)

I have plenty of free space on my computer, but it runs kinda slow, I’m wondering if the problem is not enough RAM

See, I want to play games on my compuetr(ie: Left 4 Dead, World of Warcraft,)
