Ok I have been playing GW for over a year now ( Don't have factions yet). I was wondering what kinda pci card that is under 100 bucks to buy on mewegg.com? I need to do soemthing for my graphics cause the graphics on my pc suck.
Before I upgraded my PC I was running with an ATI Radeon 9200 Pro with 1GB RAM and AMD Athlon XP 3200 and it ran very well for me.
IMHO I'd say a Radeon 9200 (or equivalent NVidia) or higher should do the job. Won't run on max settings, but for under $100 I don't think you'll get a card powerful enough.
i have a nvidia 6600 ( not GT , normal 8X AGP ) , i got it for 100$ almost 1 year ago , must be much cheaper now , runs smoth and beautifull with all at max and 1200 1024 and even with anti aliesing at 4X

Almost any card released within the last few years should run ok with it. It was designed to be easy on the requirements, but yet they still pulled off some pretty stunning graphics.
I've even seen people playing with a regular PCI graphics card and it played pretty well. As long as it has at least 64MB of RAM on it, you should be ok. The more the better though, although a faster core with less RAM is better than a slower core with more RAM.
