2.)http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...551&CatId=1560

4.)http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...726&CatId=1560

out of those 4 which one is the most bang for the buck card? and which one is the most powerfullest?

The most "powerfullest" ()would be the Geforce 7950. I would recomend that one most definately. The Geforce 8600 series, while it does support DX10, has been somewhat disappointing. Even if money is an issue I would urge you to save for the Geforce 7950, if the choice is to be one of those four cards.

I am not to sure as what to say about the 7600GT now. A great card when it came out and with it you could play todays games at high settings but I feel it will not last long. Then again, I'm still on a Geforce 6800 and am doing fairly well on it. If you are looking to spend as little as possible the 7600GT (2nd one) would be your best bet.

Can you post your dells system specs because im skeptical it will be worth upgrading and im very concerned about the power supply you have, dell have a habbit of using the worst power supply they can. The 7950GT is a massive power hog it even needs a 6pin power connecter so you need to be carefull about it.
