Alright, I’m running SDRAM which is basically DDR2. Does that mean I can just throw any RAM into this motherboard (assuming it matches the GPU, obviously)?

Core 2 Duo

I can pick it up for $67 but if there's anything better for that price... maybe around two hundred $83 bucks...
And what kind of games could I actually run?
So far I've only managed stuff up to 2004 since I lack Pixel and Vertex Shader support... I read somewhere online that there's a 3.0 Pixel and Vertex version?
Alright, I just saw the card specs and it doesn't look right. Any recommendations around the $200 mark? Looking for something used (Craigslist, or maybe someone here...)$100

Is a GeForce 8800 actually worth pairing with this build:
Core 2 Duo
512 MB SDRAM
Intel Desktop Motherboard
I can snag one for $67, but I'm wondering if there's anything better in that range... Maybe around two hundred $83 bucks...
Also, what kind of games could I actually run with this setup?
Up until now, I haven't been able to play much from 2004 onwards because I'm lacking both pixel and Vertex Shader support... I read somewhere online that this card has 3.0 pixel and Vertex capabilities?
