you may just wanna get the card housen suggested.Click Me.
I believe thats the card he is descibing. I'm not recommending it. I'll let the pro's jump in for this.
Sappire Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB
its decent enough and you should run BF2 no problems (well at least from your video card, can't say the same about cpu and ram
)

We have a store in Houston called Fry's. They are a little more specilized than best buy and other stores so they have a really good selection. I am not sure what they have in CT so you might just want to go to the local best buy or circut city and ask them if they know a store that will have a selection of 40-50 different video cards. Remember, online store do not have to pay as many employee's or for an actual store so they have better prices, ALOT better sometimes. If you don't have a credit card maybe you can find someone that will let you use theirs and you give them the $$$.

Many online stores like Newegg or Best Buy are very reliable and trustworthy.

Newegg probably does the same amount of sales per year as Best Buy (minus CD's and DVD's).... they are worldwide and are open 24 hours a day.i mean not like best buy but like newegg where theres no actuall store u can visit
