I'm shopping around for a new computer system. Mine is very old and only has a Pentium 1.55 processer in it (one of the very first Pentiums).

I called a local PC store and they said they could upgrade my old system with a new processor and other necessary components.

My BIG question concerns the video card. BGII is "choppy" at best on my PC. I usually have to PAUSE the screen in order to move my characters. Everything I hear about NeverWinter Nights indicates it is even MORE graphic-intensive.

What "specs" should I look for in a new video card? Is 32mb enough, or do I need a 64mb?

I have a basic understanding of the fundamental parts in the PC, so I know what to ask for concerning RAM, hard drives, and some of the other primary parts...but I'm just not sure about the Video card.

All suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
