Hello friends best regards to all

I'm here because I need some of help!

I bought a computer and I would like to know what videocard will buy.

My computer is the following:

Motherboard Gygabyte GA-78LMT-S2 (rev. 1.0)
Processor AMD FX 6300 3.5GHz 6Cores Vishera family
RAM Patriot PSD34G13332 4GB x1 1333 MHz
Power Supply 350w

My trouble: I have a power supply of 350w and I can't change it, I need a graphiccard for good videogames such a:battlefield 3, crisys 3, GTA IV, far cry 3, call of duty black opps and so on. and I don't want to change my computer in the games of future cause it doesn't support these games.

Which graphic card do you recommend me?

Thanks

Well for one you need another stick of ddr3 memory having only one stick in your motherboard forces single channel which is crippling your memory bandwidth. you would have been better with 2 2gb sticks then 1 4gb stick. The only graphics card thats powerfull enough to play those games but can run on a low powersupply like that is the hd7770. Why cant you change your powersupply? its really cheap and easy to do

Hello firo40, I can't change my powersupply because I don't have money enough to buy it

But reading your answer, I would like to know

What do you recommend me to transform my computer into a Pc Gamer?

First you're going to need to purchase an identical stick of ram to match the single stick in your motherboard. Having one stick of ram causes yuor motherboard to use the ram in only single channel. Haveing 2 sticks or 4 sticks allows for dual channel which is alot faster and has way higher bandwidth. Then I would either upgrade your power supply and save up for a graphics card or just go with the Hd 7770 and be happy with that as your max graphical performance.

Dont play at 1080p try to stick to 720p resoloutions. To get good performance at 1080p in games you will need a better graphics card which will require a bigger powersupply. One thing to add if your power supply is old and no name branded their is a good chance it can fry your hardware components which is another reason people make sure they have a decent power supply when building a computer

My friends

And Won't I be able to do crossfirex with my AMD 760G integrated graphic card and another good graphic card?
Would it be better do crossfirex or not?


Then Should I purchase a better power supply and the graphic card?

another suggestions?
