I want to buy a GT 630 2GB graphics card but i don't really know a lot so I need help if I buy it and if I need additional upgrades my computer is a stock m9402f with win 7 and it sucks I want to start gaming with a game like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

i tried looking to see if your motherboard has a any bios updates but it looks like it doesnt, i was gonna tell you to update the bios first. so anyway, the graphics card should just plug in and be ready to go. windows 7 should find a driver for the card right off the bat. you can then download the latest driver from the nvidia website.

if you have any problems just report back to see if we can help.

yeah but do i need to upgrade power supply

the specs say you have a 300w power supply, and the gt630 doesnt need an extra power pin so you should be okay.

1 gb is 350 watt min and 2 gb is 400 watt min so i dont know

i tested a gt440 (same as gt630) on my 300w power supply when i first got it and it worked fine. your card should work in your pc, if you have any problems just come back so we can sort it out.

but if you need a recommendation on a power supply that will work, here are a couple

rosewill green rg430 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182202

you shouldnt have any problems with your power supply though.
