well I went to BB and the geek squad rep told me the 4650 would fit, it said recomemnded psu 400w but the rep told me thats if I use crossfire dual card or something

Should I go for it?it is an XFX 1gb DDR2 128bit card

what do you guys think about this one?http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150390&cm_re=4350-_-14-150-390-_-Product

theres that for around 30 more bucks here in my local bestbuy(with shipping from newegg to PR it would cost almost the same)

anything else?D:

Okay I bought a new HP desktop and here are the specs

Intel core 2 quad @ 2.5ghz Q8300

8gb DD3 memory

Intel X4500 onboard graphics(they suck!)

300-350w psu not sure exactly

what graphics card can I get for this?

it is the 250w one sadly and I cant check on dell's site because it will ask for my pc service tag which doesnt work whenever I type mines in it says its not valid

Well yesterday I started a thread about upgrading my card and psu but I found out none would fit because I have this PC

http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/desktop-vostro-220st?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd

its a dell vostro 220s running 2gb of ram intel pentium dual core 2.2ghz

I am wondering what low profile card can I get since I cant upgrade my psu because I tried 4 today and none of them would fit in it ; ; I wish my brother had gotten the big one instead of this small cased one.

well I'm open to anything if you find a psu that will fit here then I surely can get a regular pci-e powered card

but for now it seems a low powered card is all I can fit :(

Would you know of a simmilar card to this one I read the reviews just before ordering it and many have said it tends to stop working after a while ;(

Okay then that and knowing how to keep static electricity away should be enough to do this upgrade myself :)

gh I forgot to ask this but when upgrading the PSU its just switch the cables?or do I need to apply some settings ? Just curious to see because I think it could give more power than required(I'm pretty sure this is a noobish question so please bear with me ;;)

Sweet, thanks all.

I currently play mw2,cod4 and l4d2 on normal to med settings with the HD3450

so something that will make these games better is okay
