i'm planning on replacing my geForce 5600 video card, 'cause it crashes on just about everygame i buy. Can anyone tell me whats the best video card for gaming is. thanks.

Can I make a suggestion?

Post your computer's specs for us, so we can suggest the best card FOR YOUR SYSTEM.

Specifically, make/model of your motherboard. Ideally, can you give us a link to the homepage with the specs?

But also,

1. what is your CPU
2. how much ram do you have, and what speed is it?
3. what make/model is your power supply and how many watts is it rated at? (your current psu may not be enough to power a newer card)

Let's start there.

You can also take a look at this article on the different VGA cards.

I am assuming you have an AGP8x slot?

Yep. Looks like you have an AGP8x slot, the only question now is whether or not your current PSU will be enough to power a newer card.

Follow the link I gave you (two posts above) for a comparison of all the AGP8x cards against each other to help you chose which one.
