Does that have the 305W power supply or the 255W?

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji :

Bummer. That will limit you to nothing but really weak cards.
These GT 730 with DDR5 VRAM would be the fastest you can safely use with that tiny PSU.

At least they are within your budget...

what8 if i upgrade the psu

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji :

Then you can use faster cards. But you'll have to expand your budget...

A gfx card is usually the most power demanding component in a PC. It is in fact a little computer of its own inside the main computer.

i just realized that i have a 305W PSU
Can i have the links for gpu

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji :

Can you verify this is what your PSU's nameplate reads? http://en.community.dell.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/3514/1565.J775R.jpg
I'm mainly interested in the +12v rails.

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji · Jul 26, 2015

yes pretty sure about that

clutchc · Jul 26, 2015

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji :

Well, if your PSU has 2 x +12V rails rated for 240W max... and your max budget is $100... You can use one of these GTX 750: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007709%204027%20600487564&IsNodeId=1

SUPPOSE I EXPAND MY BUDGET, IS THE "TI" VERSION WORTH IT??

Laxmi Narayan Somayaji · Jul 27, 2015

AND SUPPOSE I WANT TO CONVERT IT INTO A GAMING RIG
RECOMEND ME
1. A GOOD BUDGET RAM
2.A GOOD BUDGET PSU

clutchc · Jul 27, 2015

Why are you writing in all caps?
Yes, the GTX 750 Ti is worth it. You can use this GTX 750 Ti w/o needing a 6 pin connector. It is the fastest clocked 750 Ti that needs no 6 pin connector: http://www.pny.com/gtx-750-ti-2048mb-oc?sku=VCGGTX750T2XPB-OC
