You know. I cannot tell you what to buy, but look at what I have myself. It is fairly cheap for what you get, and it is not the "newest" on anymore. It is a fair card that will let you play games for some time yet.
Depending on what you want to spend and what games you play most.

Simulators such as this one depends a lot also on the CPU for calculations, but the one you have should be ok enough for that, though it is not superbly powerful. Take a look at your local PC store, maybe talk to the people who work there and tell them what you have and what you would want, or look around the web to find a good price with a decent spec.....

nVidia vs ATI(AMD) is an old thing, if you have no preference, then pick the best for the best price. As I said, I am very happy with the card I have.

Be sure you have a powerful enough powersupply with enough cables to fit a newer card. But from what you already have in there, it should fit newer ones as well. Happy hunting.
