An ATI card will work in a nForce mobo, even if it is "SLI", however, you would not be able to hook up two ATI cards in Crossfire.
But, if you can also, save up and get something else instead of the 1600, it is a horrible card.

Well,
built mine for relativly cheap
I have
Kingwin something case ( Very nice heavy and sturdy. Alot of room) 45$ or so
Gigabyte k8 nforce 4 something bought used from t-badger 30$
crossair value ram 80$ or so
7600GT Evga I reccomend this card. I get constant 100 fps in cs everything high and filters on 4x. Its relativly cheap at around 130$
Amd 3200 64+ - 64 are CHEAP NOW get a dual core for less than I paid for this 125$ at the time.
Hardrive - any large sata will do 40-80 or so
I think total I spent less than 600$
Obviously my prices are not all there, but look around and find good deals.
man you are getting ripped off
I got paid 20$ a game. In tournys, I would make 100$ a day.

Fuel, do you like sports? Im 13 as well, and I will be getting a job as a soccer referee soon. In my city, it pays about 10 bucks a game.

You need AT LEAST a Radeon x850xt to run BF2142, the x1800 would be better, because it has newer technologies used by newer/future games. BF2 you can get by with a simple x600.
im just running an x800xl in my 2nd comp and i dont get any lag at all on medium. havent tried high but im not really into pretty graphics just shooting.
behold the budget gamers
