My fiance and I are currently playing Rift. We got him a new computer a few months ago and now we need to upgrade his video card (he gets horrible lag when more than 3 guys are around). Can you recommend a good one that will run the game smoothly and fit in his computer? Our budget is $200-400.
Thanks in advance for your help!
