Gettin a new 430 low profile soon and was wondering could it and the rest of my pc run the more demanding games?O
Will my PC run the Call Of Duty games and the LFD (1&2) and other like SUPCOM2 and ?
Specs***
---------
Windows Vista Home Basic SVPCK 2
9600 GT (GETTING A 430 LOW PROFILE SOON,SO PLEASE PUT BOTH IN THE REVIEW)
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.0GHz
Memory: 3070MB RAM
DX : 11
*** = full dxdiag available if needed.
 
The GTX 430 is a downgrade from the 9600GT. The only thing the GTX has over the 9600GT is DX11. Then again the GTX 430 is a bit weak to take advantage of DX11 without taking a significant hit in performance.

See the following review for benchmarks. The 9600GT beats the GTX 430 in every benchmark (except for games tested using DX11 effects), in many cases the 9600GT beats the GTX 430 with more than 20% higher frame rates. If the 9600GT has DX11, then it would also be the GTX 430 in DX11 benchmarks as well.

Okay guys,thank you for the info.So if I wanted an upgrade to the 9600 (better than 9600) and it has to be a low-profile card for my cpu what would be a good option.

Really because this 9600 wasn't the best all these years I've had it,couldn't run any games on high D: at all.Really want a cheap card better than this one so I can run something like JC2 on high without lag/little lag.

Sorry guys but I'm new to the video card world.I have a 9600 with a broken fan and I'm trying to get a new video card cheap.One that can run medium-demanding games high setting with little resistance.My 9600 tested cannot do this for some apparent reason.Any other suggestions?

I'm looking for a card under 100$ (cheap,i know) Resolution is messed up I can play on 1440x900 or 1280x1024 but screen is cut at top,but I would say that.
RAM:3070
PSU: around 300 watts
inspiron 530
video card needs to be LOW PROFILE!
duno about rest of specs.
 
^^ That's a bit too low profile ! :lol:

Why a low profile card. You'll need to upgrade the PSU to run better cards and play demanding games at their best. The one provided above is a good one but its a bit too much unless the OP wants a better and high end card.
 


Don't buy that GT 210. Its an entry level card, that's not even designed for gaming. I'd go for a low profile or green HD 5670. They're much better.

PS: GT 210 is slow card and getting a low profile for that might just give you the idea..
 
What is your current case ? I'm guessing it would be enough.
For bigger cards, yes you'll need a bigger case. If you want a good processor, you're going to have to change that entire PC of yours. Firstly you have to change your motherboard. Then get a better PSU.
