I'm looking for one now. Do you need AGP or PCI-e? I assume you are on a new motherboard since you have a C2D chip.

edit:Well I have been looking at some DX9 solutions but they were surprisingly expensive, at least for the 512MB versions. I don't know what your budget is but I believe the best bang for your buck atm is the 9600GT. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130334
It should work well even without Vista, though that may be an upgrade you might want in the future.

I myself have an 8800GTS 320MB but I really wish I had gone for the 640MB now. And both are no longer cost-effective. the G92 cards outperform them very well. I will be playing AoC with this and expect (read: hope) to be able to see fair graphics.
