what would be the best chip to buy that will play all the new games like half-life 2 and that will last me at least a year? i was going to go with an amd athlon 2500+, but i would like to see some of yalls suggestions!
i was referring to a processor but thanx for the videocard info .

btw: is a radeon 9600 pro a good card?
It's what I have in my computer right now. It's a very good card indeed! Of course if you have the money I would say go with a 9700 or 9800 just coz it will last you longer. My only complaint is the heat it generates, but if you're in a desktop it won't be a problem. As for my laptop is gets quite hot =\
