Hi,
I have a dell e520 17" monitor, 1tb hdd, 4gb ram, and a stock 305 watt power supply. I want to upgrade the video card so my son can play x-plane 9 on it. What is the best/biggest/fastest card I could get that would work on this system. Thank you !! tried to install the x-plane9 game but the video card isn't good enough for the game.
 
Solution
Your PSU (Power Supply Unit) will be the bottleneck.

Your system only has a 300w PSU.

You could try a Nvidia GTX 730. That's the fastest card for that PSU Wattage.

It comes as a 2GB GDDR3 variant and faster, but less memory 1GB GDDR5 variant.

Either will be more than enough handle X-Plane 2009.
