As per my sig I have a Nvidia 260 which pairs up well with my 22" widescreen monitor with native resolution 1680 x 1050. If you have a 24" or larger monitor then you may want to consider something a bit more powerful than a 260.

The fact that you have a HP Slimline machine and are replacing that old Sapphire 100203LP would indicate that you are looking for a budget card and not top of the line stuff. The GeForce 9600GT gives decent bang for buck and is an alternative to the GeForce GT 240. From the ATI stable I would consider the Radeon HD4850 or the newer Radeon HD 5750.

Good luck.
