Stupid Person needs assistance with Very Easy Video Card question

For what it's worth, I have the GeForce MX 420 and run base game with all expansion packs. I don't get great texture detail in close up but it's good enough on a small lot to make my upload pics acceptable. Even on big lots sim detail is clear most of the time, just blurring on occasion. I play with shadows and reflections off and can't view cinematics.
I do have 1Gb of RAM but need more. Sim movement is a bit jerky at times and if I want to change viewpoint I have to pause the game to do so. But all in all it has been a great videocard. I frequently have considered upgrading but have not heard of a card that someone has not had problems with and I can't afford to buy one and then have it not work as well as what I already have.
I have had the card overheat in hot weather. At such times I take the side off and direct a table fan into the case.
If anyone can recommend a card that has worked for everyone I've love to hear of it. My system is a Pentium 4 -2800 Ghz

From my personal experience, it'll run, even up to Seasons. Played on a different setup by BV. But you'll be on all the lowest settings, and have everything special disabled. After upgrading to my new computer last month, I saw an event scene for the first time. I'd forgotten they were even supposed to exist.
Oh, and it'll lag like a laggy lagging thing. Ewe definitely needs moar ramz.
