Currently i have NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE nForce 430.. which is integrated.

I get 10 - 20 fps if i play on normal settings, So i am forced to use Caseys config which i Average around 40 - 60 Fps of which i still don't like.

I am probably going to go buy the NVIDIA GTX 285 and i was wondering is it worth it? Would i get that significant of a fps boost? I also might go up to 6G ram too.

Other specs for my comp is

Windows Vista
Acer Aspire E380
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual core processor 4400 + 2.3 GHZ
2 G ram
Graphics card as mentioned above
EM61SM/EM61PM Mother Board

Also with those specs? Should i have a PCI-E slot?

Thanks

Only get 6GB of RAM if you're OS is 64 bit.

The graphics card is awesome. :)

I got the 275 instead. And upraded to 4 GB of ram.. But im still not satisfied...

I play on all high graphics now and Average 50 fps...

When i tone it down to lower it only goes up to 80 fps.. I was thinking i would be getting more? Maybe something is wrong?

Your running vista then that card is prolly sucking all your shared memory which makes GAME fps much lower than enticipated.
