We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

    Is now the time to upgrade?

    If your GTX is struggling, then you can upgrade. You need to decide whether or not you need to upgrade.

    which company is better?

    There's basically no difference between "companies." The cards are same, and the difference is the price, warranty, and bundle. Decide on the one that you think will be best for you. If you like a whole bunch of bonus software, or someone has a better warranty, decide on that.

    Can you run Nvidia card on crossfire board

    Yes, you can run nVidia cards on ATI based mobos, and vice-versa. You can also run more than one, unless you are trying to use SLI or Crossfire, then you would need the matching motherboard chipset.

    $200 budget--what do I get?

    If I were you, I would save that $200, for a future upgrade. If you really want to upgrade, I agree with the suggestion for a used 4870 or so. EBay should have some.

    windows xp ram total ?

    The 32-bit XP will see about 3.2GB (or so) of RAM. So, you will need a 64-bit version so utilize all of that RAM.

    I agree with the 4850.

    XP Firewall VS Router Firewall

    Have both. You never know what will try to get through and whatnot. I would say a router firewall is better, but having Windows Firewall and router firewall is best combination IMO. EDIT: If I was to choose just one, the I'd go for the router firewall.

    Should I Step Up????

    I would say no, because I think $200 more is too much. You really have to make a decision if you really need/want to step up.
