DFI NF4 Ultra-D Video Card Options


I've just picked up this old socket 939 DFI nF4 Ultra-D board and wanted to bring some life into it. I currently have a 7600gt, but want to be able to update the video card to play COD4. What upgrade options do I have in terms of support? Does this MB support cards like the 8800gt? etc. Thanks!

Current setup: A64 3200+ @ 2.5ghz, 1gig ram ddr400, 7600gt, ocz 520w.
I should be picking up a x2 4800+ socket 939 soon, also some more ram.

From these links it looks like a 8800GT will be hit and miss. Apparently the board may not support all PCI-E 2.0 cards.

That is very discouraging. Have you heard anything about ati cards? is it the same deal with the hit or miss? I really want to use this computer for at least another year as I dont have the funds to build a new setup just yet. If it's just hit or miss too, I guess I'll just hold off on the x2 4800. Thanks for the previous prompt reply!
