    If those $117 are your budget, I would up it $8 and go NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti, as none of those cards above you list can play ETW or NTW with out severe lag. Minimum ram for minimum lag is 1Gb.
    Or, as a minimum card for exelent play: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...-20?s=merchant the GeForce GT 240 at $68

    Of the ones you listed, the XFX GTX285 1GB DDR3 is by far the best. Of the ones I listed, GeForce GTX 550 Ti is the best.

    If you up the 9600 GT to 1gb, it can play it just fine.

    You'd have been better off with a 460 or if you don't have the cash, a 450. Anyways, if you can play the game, that's always good.
