im not a hardcore gamer, but would like to play games like COD black ops, nfs shift, drit3 etc. which graphics card should i go for? nvidia 9500gt or ATI HD 4670? both 128-bit, 1 GB, DDR2, which one should i buy? which one would perform better?

My PC specs are core2duo 2.93 GHz, 2 GB RAM, lots of hard disk space. my PSU shows "Model P4 - 450W" so i guess it can support upto 450W, it thats helpful.

thanks

umm thanks for all the responses people. i am not quite sure about second hand hardware, so i would rather go for a new one.

plus the cost of the card is also a concern, the reason i would go for one of these cards is that they fall in my affordable range.

i would mention here that I have successfully played COD MW2 WITHOUT any video card and i have also been able to play crysis, but it wasnt very smooth, on my current pc specs, so i think adding 1 Gb would make a lot of difference as it would allow me to play more games.
