[QUOTE="DreadFury, post: 661301, member: 96011"] No problem. If you are unsure as to how much power you need from a card, just have a quick look around the forums. there are many discussions on peoples personal experiences with certain cards, some good, some bad. You won't need to break the bank, but spending that 'little bit extra' might be well worth it if invested in the right hardware. I personally have had great results from the NV9500GT as a midpoint between performance and budget. it plays most modern games very well and can play full HD like nothing, all for a very decent price. My 9800GTX on my gaming rig is amazing at both video and gaming, but a bit overkill for an HTPC unless you want insane gaming, besides needing additional power. If you want more gaming power (or less) you can get other great recommendations around the hardware forum.
