Anyhow, with that 9800 GeForce card, the big thing to check on you system is the power supply. Chances are that if your current power supply is as old as your system seems to be, than it will not have enough power (or the right plugs) to run a 9800 card. The newer cards are more power hungry, big time. If you are looking at Tigerdirect (I love them...order stuff from them all the time!) than check out the detailed power supply requirements for that video card and compare to your current power supply. If it looks like you need to upgrade the power supply also, then you want to get a name brand one, and its a good idea to have 200-300w over what you actually need. Ultra and Corsair are my two favorite power supply company's, but there are other good one's out there.

I can help a bit - just bought a 9800 GT and it required a 400w system PSU -- soooo, I bought a new 550wat PSU to go along with it!
