Hi

I haven't really followed the market for a while so don't know what the current big players are. My XBOX 360 has died and while waiting for a replacement I got gaming on my PC again, I only really play RPG games on PC like Dungeon Siege.

I picked up Titan Quest and would love to play it with graphics that will do my Samsung 19" DVI Widescreen Display Justice so here's the specs of my current setup and some caveats for cards.

Computer:
Model: Philips Freeline LS1000 (Low profile form factor)
CPU: P4 540 HT (3.2GHz, 800Mhz FSB, 1MB Cache)
RAM: 512MB DDR
MB: Not known
HD: 200 GB SATA
GFX: Low Profile ATI Radeon X300 128MB PCI-X
Screen: SAMSUNG SM940BW/19 TFT

Currently my PC sounds like an aircraft taking off when doing anything like playing games or encoding video, not sure if this is the CPU Fan or the GPU Fan because I haven't had the case open to see, i'd like to make the machine as quiet as possible anyway so a quiet card is a must.

Cheers for any help people.

:)
