Default Help transferring everything to another case!!!

Hey everyone, and to start thanks for having a look.
Well you see, I bought the Dell Dimension c521 at the start of 2007 and im really into gaming alot, so i decided that i needed a better graphics card.
The problem is that the case the computer is so slimlined that it can only hold Low Profile graphics cards....which i heard arent half as good as the normal ones.
BTW im quite new to computers and dont know much about them. So i was wondering what graphics cards you guys reccommend thats will be able to play all the games for around 1yr from now. IM willing to spend around $200-$350 Australian Dollars.
Or if you think its not worth getting all my current components moved to another case by a professional, what LOw Profile graphics card do you reccommend?
And pleaze dont think that i am a lazy person that cant be bothered looking for help. Its just theres so much range out there and since i dont know that much i have no idea of the differences. Thanx guys. Cya

The components in your c521 will not fit into a normal ATX case. They may fit into a larger Dell case such as the Dimension 5100. What are the specs of your C521? They will determine if it is suitable for gaming.
