Hi all,

I wanna give my old obscure hp computer a little boost because my current rig is experiencing some issues. I wanna be able to play games well, but my psu is only 240w. I ran dxdiag on it and I have a pent-up e6660 @ 3.2 gHz. I don't think a gpu at this level will exceed $100, but I really hope I can find a low profile card. Thanks!

240w is designed to run with igpu and non gaming system. No decent gaming gpu can run at that low wattage. Sad to say bro but its time to upgrade

I don't think you wanna invest in an old computer. A 240w PSU is small for a GPU that will play games well. You wanna give your system a boost? Buy a nice 500W PSU that way you can upgrade CPU's. At $100 you can buy an i3 with integrated graphics for decent gaming. Or you can alternate with a Q9650 . That way you can now get some decent gaming done. If you want now you can buy a $100 GPU now you will really notice a difference

Hi gwapito, I just need a gpu that can push basic games like Morrowind, etc. well. Would like a 6670 work with my build?

Looks great :D would this be the highest performing card for the wattage you would recommend for my build?
