Help Choosing 3D Card Please

[themaxattack]

Hello,

First time post.. =]

I need some help choosing a 3D card/graphics accelerator.
My aim is to spend around $150 to $200 NZD -/+.

What would I like to run at reasonable FPS?
-
Call of Duty: World at war. (and potentially COD: MW2)
Burnout Paradise
Left 4 Dead
Fallout 3
GTA IV
Crisis
-


I know my PC is not the greatest gaming PC and will never be and will not be able to run the top cards, but I would like to get the most out of it as possible.



PC:
HYENA 300W POWER SUPPLY DR-8320BTX
Gigabyte GA-M61PME-S2 Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ 2.4GHz (Not OC'ed)
2Gig RAM (single stick)
250Gig Hdd

How good is this card in your view?

So my questions are,
Which 3D card is best for my PC? (GeForce 9600GT?)
What are the top two or three cards for me to choose from in your opinion and why?
& Can my mother board take DDR3 3D card?

Any advice or other comments are welcome please be nice!

You can find a chart video card performance here.
I would suggest that you spend the minimum on a new video card. Because 1) You need a fast CPU to get full advantage from a fast video card. 2) You can put the savings towards a new PC in a year or so.
