Low i think, if you want to push it you can get some stuff to go medium. That card is holding you back.

Well i'm moving house in a few months, so i might be able to sell this one (What is it worth?) and i can have about £500-600 extra to spend ontop of what i sell this one for.

the card may be worth about $50.  If you are going to invest in upgrading, you may as well get a new motherboard and graphics card.  I recommend the Asus A8N-E or DFI Ultra-D (my two personal favorites).  And for the graphics card check out the 7900gt (I prefer eVGA for their warranty, that or XFX), which is currently the best high-end bang for the buck right now.

I have 120gb drive, and a 160gb drive both 7200rpm, dvd drive, cd-rewriter, 320V power fan thingy, and some alien case which lites up blue and transparent sides.

So? AGP can do a hella lot more than you currently are using it for. I have a AGP 6800 GT and I can run pretty much high across the board.

i have a ATI 9600 256MB and i cant run at 1280X1024 with like 3 things on medium (cant remember which ones).. im CPU limited right now too with a AMD 2700.. so i would think with a 9800 or if you want to go all out get the x850 and you should have high settings

ive only used ATI so i dont know about Nvidia.. just go by what the other guys are saying
