I would recommend getting a video card better than that to suite the rest of your system specs to be honest. A card with 128-bit memory doesn't fare that well. Even though it will run Supreme Commander, you should look into a card that will last you a long time. Since you can get PCI-Express, don't limit yourself to a cheesy video card. At least get a card with a 256-bit memory interface.

Something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814186005

Its pricey, but in the end its worth it.

Here are some others I came across:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150182

Of course you could just save up some money and purchase one 8800 series card. Again like I tell myself though, it all depends on what you want to use your computer for. If you are not a heavy gamer, than the top of the line video card may not be for you.
