HP Pavilion Elite m9340f Quad core with 350w power and Vista64. A great machine until my graphics card started screaming a couple of months ago. I couldn't stand the noise so I quickly replaced it with a Geforce 210 1 gb card. My windows score went from 5.9 to 4.2. What I would like to find out is what I can replace the 210 with to bring me back up to at least a 5.9? Preferably less than $100. I'm not a gamer but I do occasionally do some 3D with Daz Studio and photography corrections. All the responses I've found are out of date as the cards recommended are discontinued.

Thanks a bunch!

Bill

Is the PCI Express 3.0 x16 going to be a problem? That is a relatively new spec and this machine is almost 5 years old released May 08. I feed dual 24" monitors Acer P241W.
Thanks again for the help,

Bill

I thank you for the response. After looking at them the 7750 has a connector I'm not familiar with. The HDMI, DVI and of course a VGA I know. But the second one on this card is new to me. My two monitors P241W acers only have the HDMI, DVI and VGA on them.
In the past I haven't had a lot of good luck with the Radeon cards so I've kinda been sticking to Geforce. As always everyones mileage may differ.

Thanks,

Bill
