if you relaly want to try it, first go get the demos for BF2. And probably pick up hl2. Your computer should be able to run it... heck, my MX400 runs Hl2 well (on DX7 though). Try out BF2, that's one that's fuzzy. If it works, stick with it until you get more for a better upgrade.... maybe go X1600XT if there's one for you. I heard it was around 120-200

Don't get it. Its basically a hotted up 9800XT. How much are you looking to spend, Because I think you could do better.

It completely depends on how much you are looking to spend. The X800se performs in the same ballpark as the 6600gt and X800GT, so I wouldn't spend more than $120 for one. Here is the only review of the X800se that I could find. You'll have to click on the blue links to each game benchmark listed in the lower half of the page to get the charts.
