Hey guys, I'm planning on replacing my Integrated ATI Radeon XPRESS 200 card and I don't know which one to buy.
I'm a little worried that I might buy a card that isn't compatible with my PC so I came here first.
I need specific GFX cards that are compatible with my computer. I want a 256mb card that's decent yet affordable. If you guys dont have any ideas, please kindly tell me what to look for in a GFX card to find if it's compatible or not.
Try the radeon 4670
under 80 bucks and is a really powerful card (mid range graphics, but leaps and bounds over what you have now - and does not require more than a 300 watt power supply)
well your current 'vidcard' is your integrated graphics , right? ANY upgrade will be better than what you currently have. Look at the 4830 or 4850. www.newegg.com
For a prebuilt system like yours it's hard to beat a HD4670. Its low power requirements will be fine for your power supply and it will fit in your PCIex16 socket. It gives decent performance at a price of about $55-$90. Since it's the beginning of the month there's not a lot of rebates available at newegg, they usually come a bit later in the month. This one is $70 after rebate

they'll drop as low as $55 after rebates and with free shipping if you wait or shop around. As with all prebuilt systems adding a graphic card, download hardware monitor and keep an eye on your temps (prebuilts usually have pretty poor cooling)
