Hello,

I have
Motherboard: ASUS M4N78
Ram: 4GB of DDR2
Graphic card: Phenom II X3 710 processor,
PSU: chieftec gps 500ab a

I just bought:
Hard Drive: SSD SATA3 250GB Samsung 850 EVO Hard Drice and
Monitor: LG 25UM55-P 25" IPS LED (Ultra wide)

And it looks like my current Graphic card : NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT 512MB DDR3 can't support my new monitor. or it's not getting enough power supply.
I want to buy a new one so I need an advice which one should be good with my configuration.

lol you bought a very nice monitor

the question is, what do you want to do with it?


game?, watch movies?


if it's for gaming you need a total rebuild to properly support it

What's your estimated budget?

Any $200-300 cards should do the trick to get 60FPS most of the time, regardless which.
Also, pay attention on your PSU limit should you decide. Never skimp on PSU.

If you had to choose better card or better PSU on a tight budget, choose better PSU and decent card.

I didn't even know what kind of monitor did I ordered until it came to my door :D.

Anyway, I'm software developer and I don't need strong graphics. Top of my gaming is League of Legends.
I'm looking for something not too expensive, but not too cheap as well.
