Yes? No? Maybe? What is it?

Warcraft III, needs less than some of the newer games coming out. Like Halo, Tron 2.0, or Half-Life 2. If you are content to run older games, then most Nvidia or ATI 4x AGP cards would be fine. If you want to run some of the high FPS games, then you will want to get a machine with an AGP pro slot and get a higher end graphics card. If gaming is your primary use for your computer, then spending $300 for a good high end card is not unreasonable.

You can get a pretty good bang for your buck with an ATI RADEON 9600 XT 128MB AGP which can be found for as low as $185.
