Good sir, I urge you to throw the G4 MX in the trashbin and get a new one, seriously.

Why you ask?

Because a G4 MX can "BARELY" stand on 30 FPS, 90 FPS in spring makes a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE diffrence!

I'd say a Geforce 5500 isn't bad as long as it's dirt cheap and you don't want to spend a whole lot of money till all the "new" stuff comes out like DX10, Pci-X V2, Conroe and The AMD Price Cut.

Indeed I strongly recommand you get yoruself an el-cheapo modern GPU.
Such as an nVidia 7300 or and 6600, those cost little to less. And makes yopu run most games decently (including spring).
