Alrighty I have..oh man whats it calleed??...the A card interface for my mobo. Ive got an AMD but im running a GPU that runs best for a Intel. I wanna go with an IceQ Special ed. from TD but i wanna know what you think is the best card for the best buck. I want something thats gonna flow air, has more memory is faster and wont break the bank(or in this case my sadly thin wa;;et)

What's the price range?
And do you mean AGP card slot?
I've been referring the GTS 250 from Palit to just about everyone who asks about videocards. You can get it with 512mb video mem for 129 on newegg.com (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814261042) or with 1GB video mem for 150-190 (http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&q=GeForce+GTS+250+1GB&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=vIfCSd_pNomGsQPdzan0Bg&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&resnum=1&ct=title)other places.
the GTS 250 is basically the 9800 GTX+ redone. It's smaller (about 9 inches) is made for lower power needs and a lower price.
Here's a comparison on my card and the gts 250 (http://www.gpureview.com/show_cards.php?card1=606&card2=475#)
I paid like 250 for mine a year ago. I can run COD4 on my PC at 1900x1440 at 60fps average.

Yeah, you can run anywhere from 1 to like 5 in a system I think. I'm just saying to make sure you have the power supply for everything in there. Underpowering your shit can be dangerous.
Thermaltake 90mm w/ blue leds (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811999121)
Moves up to 79 cubic feet of air a minute. Adjustable via a controller that sits in an expansion slot. It's what I have. Keeps my shit cool. It's not really that loud.
Masscool 90mm rated at 48 CFM (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835150089)
One speed. Its about as loud as whispering.
Newegg and tigerdirect are very good sites for computer hardware. Also, I worship Fry's Electronics.

Two robbers were robbing a hotel. The first robber said, "I hear sirens. Jump!"The second one said, "But we're on the 13 th floor!"The first one screamed back, "This is no time to be superstitious!"
