Hi guys!

I need help finding a compatible Graphics Card for my desktop. I don't know much about graphics cards, but I want to upgrade mine. I just don't know what graphics card is compatible with my motherboard and the rest of my desktop pc.

I know my computer is 64-bit capable, however it currently runs Windows 7 Professional 32-bits.

The graphics card needs to be able to run games like Minecraft and if possible, also GTA V for pc. I want a decent graphics card which is also cheap.

If possible, I'd like to get some recommendations for what and where to buy one. I live in the Netherlands, but buying online is no problem for me.

Desktop PC: HP - Compaq Presario SR5310NL
Current Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT

I appreciate any help! Thanks!

If you want a graphics card that can run GTA V decently with that build, this is your ONLY good option: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Dual-Link-Graphics-02G-P4-3751-KR/dp/B00IDG3PRI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437081106&sr=8-1&keywords=gtx+750+ti

If you wanna play GTA V on low, then you can spend a little less: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L5GZG5C/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-1&pf_rd_r=1HAZJJ8QSEF9Y9QSGT6S&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2079475242&pf_rd_i=desktop

You cant go any hgher than these two because of your power supply

Good luck :)

can change the psu to higher wattage as I'm using the same case but with a non-hp gigabyte board.

Thanks, Forever Oleg and ffg7! Your answer helped me out a lot! :)
Can you provide me with the information that's crucial when looking for and purchasing a graphics card for my pc?
Like the amount of Watts etc.
 


The two cards I gave you the links to are your two best options with your power supply. both are plug n play cards and will work fine right when you plug them in because they do not require much power
