Bad PSUs don't cause lag; they usually either cause intermittent restarts, BSODs, or a combination of the two.
To be honest, it'd depend on the game you play, but the 9800GT is underpowered if you want to run games like BFBC2 with the best possible image quality.
If you want a bump up, consider this card. It'd provide a major performance boost and it's the best price vs performance card out there at the moment.
It'd be safer to also upgrade your PSU, since it's barely sufficient. This is a great, inexpensive choice, although I recommend this as a slightly more expensive PSU that provides ample room for any upgrades down the road.
