Hello everyone!
For awhile now I've been saving money to buy a new graphics card. I'm doing it myself this time, because the last time I got someone to upgrade my PC for me, I ended up being screwed over. So this time I'm going to do this alone. Problem is, I know very little about hardware and compatibility.
I did some research and I'm thinking about buying a GeForce GT 640 (i'm not looking for some fancy high end gaming, or anything like that). I don't know if it can run on my computer without bottle capping my psu. I can't afford to take any risks. So I turn to you guys for help.
Here are my specs:
E5500 2.80GHz
4 GB of RAM
32-bit OS
I opened the side of my computer to see how many watts it had, but it was in Chinese so I couldn't tell what is said. I remember reading 250 or something like that, but don't take my word for it.
So yeah, I want to know what you people think. Can my PC take it?
