well my computer is pretty old and so is my graffic card. i noticed that when i tried to put my sro settings on high and my whole computer got screwed up:
the graffic control program got overloaded

here's my graffic card (i think):
Medion GeForce4 8x Ti 4200

tell me how bad this is
and what i should ask for x-mas whitout it being too expensive

Buy a new computer.

If it's old, it will be AGP. The last cards to come out on AGP will not be able to properly handle the current games at decent settings.

If you can't afford a new computer, get a job. If you're too young for a job, quit bitching and study.

I'm sure you can get an X800 for $70, not sure how much in Euro's though.

hmm, try:
ATI: x800, x1600
GeForce: 6600, 6800.

should be decent.
