Anything better than a GF 4 Ti. The official specs say GF3, but you'd be good to go with a late model GF4 (make sure though its a Ti), or a midrange GF5. Or you could go the ATI route, I think the 9xxx models should handle the game well, the midrange models start around 9500 I think.
Just make sure your mobo can handle the newer card (check to see what Version of AGP port you have, 8x, 4x, or whatever)
