sweetoothj, see this chart to see how good particular video cards are. 4650 = outdated and slow. A video card I bought for $50 in late 2008 is faster, if that means anything.

I'll second that chart, but it really does depend on what he plans to play with it.

I mean, I just bought a 4670 for $110 (these things are expensive and outdated in the UK) and it plays Starcraft II on Ultra settings at my res. Obviously if I could afford/justify a 5770 I would have.

Wow that's crazy expensive. I bought a used 4890 for $150 in May with a transferable warranty (was the fastest card that would fit/work in my hackintosh at the time) and thought that was a little expensive considering I was buying a 4xxx card when 5xxx cars were already out. I will stop complaining.

How about this

 

 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dell Inspiron I570-7034PBK Desktop, 18.5" LCD Monitor & 3-in-1 Printer Package/9999138100050002.p?id=pcmprd138100050002&skuId=9999138100050002

 

then I will go buy a graphic card for about 100- 150 dollars.
