Hey Guys!

Do you guys think this card will perform well?
I only have PCI (not pci-e)
And I'm short on cash.
If so, what do you think I could run? I have COD:4 and COD:WAW
and Crysis and GOW.
Thanks!

Specs:
2.8ghz Processor
1024mb of RAM
Current Card: Nvidia Geforce 5500 FX

Card I'm getting:

I already answered this question in the previous thread but here's the quote

To answer your question, to be blunt, your computer is too old. You are looking for an AGP graphic card (AGP was the standard before PCI-e) and frankly at this point your options are limited. This means you most likely need to buy a new computer or look on eBay for old parts. The 1900XLX i believe was the most powerful AGP card on the market hopefully you can get it for cheap
 
If you have to buy a PCI graphic card and you can't wait to build a new comp then that graphic card will run Source games and COD4 ok but it is doubtful it will be able to run Crysis on anything besides lowest settings.
 
A new video card would help, but man.. you really need some more ram.

Plus if thats a single core proccesor, im not sure how much a new video card is going to help.
