GF3?! no point at all, well outdated, will probably struggle to play dfx.

i say minimum get a ati 9550, or stretch to a newer x700

i guess you're from americaa? sry i dont know their shops, but iirc newegg.com is ok

Here ya go mate, I have this one, and it plays all the latest games, including DFX, with no problems, although not ALL setting can be one high, just most of them.

I suggest to check the watt output of your PSU before you buy anything! Aswell as give us details on all other specs of your system.
