No problems.

8800 series are the latest and greatest by Nvidia.

8800GTX = best
8800GTS 640mb
8800GTS 320mb
8600GTS

etc

8xxx series cards are the only DirectX 10 cards available at the moment. ATI doesnt have DX 10 cards out yet.

From what I can see, you have a P4, and 2 gigs of ram.

2 gigs of ram is good - plenty for xp and enough for vista.
P4 is getting on a bit now - C2D are much faster. These cards I mentioned would work ok with this system - the P4 wouldn't bottleneck them. Wouldn't be worth getting anything faster though, as the CPU would start to bottleneck their performance I think.

I think any of the cards I mentioned would give you a real boost in gaming.

8800gts would be the best by a long shot because it will also do DX 10 when the games come out (if you have vista - no dx 10 on XP) and even in dx 9 and xp it will be noticeably better than the others I mentioned. But it costs more.
