    Default Graphics card.

    I revived a desktop from the dead. I know far a fact it's graphics card (RADEON 9600) managed to take on WoW, although, it couldn't support WotLK.

    Also, the desktop uses Vista, and when I look at the system properties, it gives ratings for all components.
    All its components are rated above 4.5 except its graphics.

    In short, does anyone know of any cheap graphics cards I can buy for it to improve it? Possibly one that can play the new WoW expansion. UK sites only, I'm not American.

    What model is your motherboard and power supply?

    You can find something in the 50 pound region on eBay UK (even cheaper second hand), but it may not work with your PC. I suspect that you don't have PCI Express slots for graphics cards since the Radeon 9600 only utilised AGP slots.

    If that's the case, then this is your best bet. In terms of performance, it's worth half the price, but it's using the AGP slot which drives the price up since it's legacy.

    But your power supply may not have the connectors or power for it.

    So yeah, motherboard and power supply model would be appreciated.
