Hello everyone,
I recently ordered an Acer desktop from Costco (http://www.costco.com/Acer-ATC-120-UC22-Desktop-%7c-AMD-A10.product.100140286.html). It has an AMD A10-6700 APU with integrated Radeon 8670D graphics. I also have an old NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT graphics card lying around, but I'm pretty sure I would need to buy a stronger power supply than the stock 200W one if I wanted to use that graphics card in the desktop. Here's my question: How much, if at all, better performance will I get if I use the NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT graphics card as opposed to the integrated Radeon 8670D graphics? Would it be worth it to spend the extra $40-$50 on a new power supply so I could use the graphics card?
Thanks,
Filip
