So, I bought The Sims 3 and I tried it last night. Everything is so laggy! So I am willing to go out and buy a new video card ( first time buying one). Can you help me determine which card will work best? (One that is, I guess you would say "price-friendly", and also would work for WoW.)

Computer specs: HP - Pavilion a6118x Desktop/PC

See, I was looking into this graphics card: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?...

But as a person that doesn't know much about computers, I'm not sure how to get my money's worth when it comes to these kinds of things. Any suggestions? Thank you!

dude, both of this links dont work.....

But looking on the HP website, you are currently running on inbuilt graphics, hence the lag. Cant see what card you suggested, but this links to a thread where you will find the best card for your budget (bout 1/4 or 1/3 of the way down).
