I want to replace my ATI Radeon HD 4550 to something better but I am not sure what to go for, or what is suitable for my computer. My specs:

AMD Athlon II X2 255 Dual-Core 3.1GHz
pegatron motherboard 2A99\
4.0gb RAM
750gb HDD

250 W POWER SUPPLY
 
Solution





I would go for a solid 450w from a good manufacturer.

I would do that along with a gtx 750 ti, and another 4gb of ram if you have a 64bit OS.


save money then you can reuse those components when you upgrade.

Well, in this day in age, for most games, you'd have to go for a card within the range of the Radeon HD 7970 or GTX 750, both being excellent upper-middle range cards.

If you want to go all out, however, I'd upgrade my power supply and get a Radeon R9 290X or GTX 780 Ti. List your power supply and I can get a bearing on what cards would be good for you!
