Hey,
I have a AMD x2 3800 with 1gb ram (pc4200 @533mhz) and a Nvidia 6150 (sucks). It only has a 300w power supply http://www.power-on.com/atx12vhp300bt.html (Link to power supply.) The case is small, so overheating could be a problem for the hotter cards.It also has a PCIx slot available. Now, will i need a new power supply? I'd prefer to avoid purchasing one if it is at all possible.
Now, I am looking to upgrade the video card. I'd prefer to spend under $200, although I might use this card in a new computer that i'll purchase next year, so i am willing so spend an extra couple of $$$ if the performance gain is significant.
Are there any good cards in the $150 range that do not require a lot of power?
Lastly, I saw that people were saying they found the 8800gts 320mb available for $250, but i could not find anything for less than $275.
Thanks
