Graphics card help.

Sorry for being "not so knowledgable", but i need help.
I have a Dell Dimension 1100 and i would like to upgrade the graphics card.
Currently i have a Intel(R) 82865g graphics controller (which is very wimpy). My game tend to stutter alot, Trouble is i only have PCI slots available (not PCI-E or AGP). As it is only a basic model.
Can anyone reccomend any PCI graphics cards that i can slot in (about 256mb would be nice). I want to play Half life 2 type games.
The only info i can find is:-
MODEL..Dell Dimension 1100/DE051
version..5.1.2600/sp3
PROCESSOR..x86family15model4stepping9genuineintel~2526mhz
HARD DRIVE..80gig
TOTAL MEMORY..1,280,00mb
AVAILABLE..508.86mb
I hope this helps you to help me?

Re: Graphics card help.

Try either one of these , but note that since midrange pci cards are a very specific part they are a tad expensive.

I recommend the 2400 out of all of them.
