| Exactly how much. A price range would be good. If it's below $500, then you can buy almost every single graphics card on the market.

nVidia GeForce 8800GT 512MB ($250)
That should be able to play most games at high settings with above average frames at its price point.

You might be able to buy the 9800GX2, but that would be around [I am guessing] $500-$600. Then NVIDIA will reclaim the title of "most powerful single graphics card" (which is what you want, unless you have an SLI or CrossFire setup).
The 9600GT isn't as good as the 8800GT, but in terms of price-to-performance, it is the better buy.

Also, be warned. Buying a new video card means buying more RAM, if its in sufficient, and a new PSU.
