9600pro i guess, if u want nvidia would be 5500 that is within your budget. but 9600 perform better then 5500. quite long never check old cards so i might be wrong.

dont think his psu can support, in the end might need to fork out another 50-60 for a psu.

hard to say, if his old one is those brandless one, even they state there 450w or even 500w is not enough, i have already encoutered a few cases when helping some friend to upgrade.

Nah. Not for vanity purposes. My bf's laptop, as zai as it is, can't play Hellgate. And if I can't play at his house, gotta bring my com over there lo.
I'm not a huge fan of SFF to be honest, but starting to like it. Wondering if I can get that Shuttle carry-around monitor also.

Only idiots or the rich will buy the 8800ultra at a time like this. You can get a G92 8800gts for $500 that has almost identical performance as the gtx.
Integrated graphics such as the intel integrated media accelerator will make you suffer with extremely LOW frame rates.
@topic starter, if you have not bought any card yet. Buy the ATI x1650 for around $80-100. Its better than the 6600gt.
