Pci :(

Here are my wonderful system specs:
Dell Dim. 2350
Nvidia FX 5200 PCI (256 mb RAM)
Intel P4 2.0 GHZ
512mb DDR RAM
250 Watt PSU
Standard Integrated Audio

Heres the deal...i'm 17, I don't have a ton of money MAYBE 150$ at one time...at most...I love games, I play cod2 and have a specific cfg that helps my fps but let's face it, a 5200 doesnt cut it...Dad is getting a new comp. and i figure he'll let me have this one and i would hope to upgrade it providing the price is right...I've considered updating my vid card to either an ATI x1300 or an Nvidia 6200...seemingly top of the line for us PCI users. Here's what i would like to know...what video card do you recommend, where should i get it from...because everywhere i look i get good and bad reviews on each's performance, and are there any other additions that could be made to squeeze some life out of this piece of crap...aside from buying a new mobo...i'd love to update but i think i'm going to wait til college and buy a very nice computer then...thanks!!
