    cs:s and bf2 aren't really that graphics intensive. The source engine is mainly CPU based. Bf2 i've not really played so can't comment.

    An nVidia 9600GT - £80 will sort out your problems, or an ATi HD3850 - £50 if you're on a budget.

    Or an ATi HD4850 will really fly if you can scrape together £110.
