RAM is ok, processor is not unless it's a dual-core.

We'd need your motherboard to see what kind of gfx it can support :|

the procecor is INTEL CORE 2 QUAD CORE Q6600 2.40 (copy paste from system information)
and the motherboard is from asus model P5N-E SLI.

Well your processor is fine, I thought it was a sucky P4 or something.

Too lazy to google about your motherboard, but if it supports SLI it should be fine.
Uhh, go to Newegg.com and look for a good card with your budget? You should get something pretty good with that money, since I paid 500€ for my whole computer.

Someone else should post some suggestions, I don't really know about the latest in graphics technology.

I think kalle's an idiot for giving you newegg when you specified euros. Newegg is US/Canada only. Parts are going to be much, much more expensive in europe.

Actually thats pretty much the retail price of around europe as you can see here.

-edit-

Ok, nevermind my tired eyes, they saw a euro sign on newegg instead of a dollar sign.
