Nvidia Geforce 4 4200, 4600, or 4800 w/ at least 128 mb of ram, about 70 bucks. NOT WORTH IT. buy a radeon 9800 pro for about $200 and it'll last you a lot longer

why isnt it worth it does it still have it all even if its not worth it

because it basically will only run halo and thats it, but it will still run halo slow with lag, its best to get the 9800 because it will run halo (no lag unless cpu lag) and other games nicely and you won't have to upgrade in awhile...personally i have a ati 9200 radeon and its good, but again i can't do high on some video features i would also suggest the 9800 if you can afford it if not go ahead and drop for a ati 9200 its good...for ya around $100...got my $94.99 on sale...walmart

does it still support speculars , shadows and decals for the 9200
also does it have to be ati or can it be like gigabyte radion 9200

if you have PCI express get ATI Gigabyte X600... its mad crazy.

I run top graphics settings, and the card takes it like a joke.

check this out: Radeon 9800 $136 (regulary $300)

9200 hundred can run it if with spec shadows if your motherboard can support it, im running on old pIII 800mhz board iwth sdram so it only runs at 4x but it can go to 8x speeds (the videocard). But yeah i can run spec shadows and such but have to turn other things down like that sound feature and some of the other shadows...but your computer (if up to date), should be able to run it, and don't you have to have a pci express slot on the motherboard to have pci express? which i doubt he does if hes worrying about a $100 videocard...
