Sorry forgot to add that. Overall its one gigabyte of ram so usually without important programs running its about 370 megabytes taken up....Is that any good?

Thanks

Hi just out of interest I was wondering what sort of ram usage is good for gaming...i.e 350 megabytes of ram in use...etc and whether or not I should make it lower...

Thanks

Thanks to everyone who posted and gave time to reply to my question. As for the card i am just about to buy off ebay now for about £35 so I am really please :)

Cheers :)

Thank you, I'm so glad to hear that its been bugging me for quite some time, fingers crossed it will run source games on high settings with smooth frames....:)

One last thing, sorry if it's a bit off topic...Why are graphics cards like the ati radeon x1650 pro so cheap on ebay?! The ati x1650 pro is about £30 average on most sellers...Surely theres something going on....

Hi I just want to know from people with experience if you think I will be ok with buying an ati radeon x1650 512mb pci/e with a 350 watt psu?

Will it run ok on the psu do you think? I really cant afford to spend £70 on a dell compatible psu thats 470 watts....Should i bother upgrading or will i be ok? Please help

Ok thanks again will do ;)

Hi I was just wondering if you know any fairly good free pc games to download...I know about America's Army but are there other games that are worth downloading. Also only tell me games that are clean please (virus/spyware/adware free)

Cheers :)

Hi I am upgrading my computer's psu just to install a new graphics card that is a fairly cheap. Just wanted to know what you think of the ati radeon x1550 and whether or not it can run games like counter strike source smoothly (60fps or more).

Cheers :)

Thats just what i wanted to hear lol thnks been looking all over the place for psu's and started to lose hope...if i was to buy this and it was compatible do you think installing a graphics card would be ok aswell because i heard dell systems can lock up sometimes when upgraded...:S

Thanks :)
