color is all washed out and distorted.

Have you tried cleaning monitor? :p

But seriously - it all depends on you budget, if you are not a hardcore 3D games player then there is no need to buy latest and greatest cards, which can cost a fair whack of money.

Consider picking a bargain and going for last good NVIDIA card - GeForce 4600 (128Mb). I have it and I was able to play Doom3, Far Cry, Unreal 2004 just fine!

I would not recommend getting any card with less than 128Mb of RAM (unless you don't want to play current generation games that need lots of texture storage). And stay away from NVIDIA 52xx series - these were poor!
