I recently decided on building my own system, but I will be building it later on this year and I want to play some of the latest games. So that forces me to upgrade my current 3year old pc. It's a Dell Dimension 4550 with:
Intel 845PE motherboard
Pentium 4 @2.4ghz
1gb and 256 mb ram
60gb WD harddrive
GeForce MX 420
I want to upgrade my graphics card but i'm not sure what to get exactly. I was going to get a BFG 6200 OC, but I found out I can add a better card than that. Now, I have an AGP 4x slot but it will take an 8x card according to the motherboard specs. I was considering an ATI X1600x but wasn't sure because I don't think my mobo has a powercable for the card. Any suggestions as to what I should do would be helpful. Thanx in advance.
