I've been playing Civ IV for quite a while, but my computer is slightly underpowered for that game. Reading ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tygerr's description of the visual effects has prompted me to remedy this situation.
The manual says that, at minimum, the game requires a "64 MB Video Card w/ Hardware T&L (GeForce 2/Radeon 7500 or better)"; it recommends a "128 MB Video Card w/ DirectX 8 support (pixel and vertex shaders)". I think that's the only respect in which my system falls short. Does anyone have a recommendation as to what video card I should order? Money's not too much of an object.
