Muzrub,

I would take 7900 GS as it is really good graphic card and it's not very expensive now. 7600 is also good but I would take 7900 or 7950 :)

Also what others suggested new system would have to have 2 GB of memory. Memory is very important! That way you can keep "youth" in your system for longer time. And always my rule is never to buy latest graphic card or latest CPU etc... it's not worth it!
So I always go with slighty less than top components.

EDIT: And take Intel of course! Stay away from AMD like from devil itself. :)

Mario

7950 GT OC for the win. 512m DDR3 at 1.43ghz
