for 300 watts that tricky because most require at least 350W maybe look at the ATI X1600 (not even sure if that runs with that), i know that the X1300 would be run on that. for Nvidia the weaker card like the 7100LE would run it but i doubt you would want that.

oh man this sucks because i heard to get a good video card (which i want) i have to upgrade my power supply and to get a new power supply over 500 watts i need a new case and to get a new case the motherboard might not even fit. this is so irritating. this is my computer http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/1013954/1013954sp2.shtml

the motherboard will most likely fit what was the card you wanted to get?

i think the gateway cases will allow an ATX powersupply, otherwise Gateway would sell them or someone would make a psu that would fit
