BIOSTAR motherboard VIDEO CARD compatibility

[POOCHE001]

I HAVE A BIOSTAR MOBO NF61V MICRO AM2 Althlon 64 X2 processors
Supports Hyper Transport and Cool=n=Quiet O/S XP PRO 64 FSB-Supports up to 1GHz Bandwidth
GRAPHICS Integrated in MCP61V Chipset Max Shared Video Memory is 256MB
2GB DDR2 800
PCI slot x2
PCI Express x16 slot (x1 Speed) x1
WITH A MONITOR THAT HANDLES 1920 X 1080 WITH A REFRESH RATE OF 3000
IM NOT A MAJOR GAME PLAYER BUT I DO LIKE TO PLAY EASY TO MEDIUM GAMES BUT I ALSO LIKE TO PLAY MOVIES/VIDEOS.
MY QUESTION IS WHAT ARE THE COMPATIBLE VIDEO/GRAPHICS CARDS THAT WOULD GO WITH THIS MOBO/CHIP/MEMORY/OS?
WHAT DO I LOOK FOR ?
ODVIOUSLY IM NOT ALL THAT TECHY. THE SPECS I PULLED FROM THE MANUELS.

Well before u look for what grpahics card tat is supported, check ur Powersupply...
If u ahve a gud quality 350W- 450W PSU, then gor for the ATI 4670...this is the appropriate card for ur setup...
But if u have a very gud 400W powersupply , then get a ATI4830 or 9800GT, which ever is cheaper...

^agree gkay09 nailed it. With a 300w-350w power supply go with the HD4670. With a 400w to 500w power supply the HD4830 or 9800GT is a good choice.

CURRENTLY I HAVE A DYNEX 400W BUT IM LOOKING TO UPGRADE THAT AS WELL IM LOOKING FOR A GOOD CABLE MANAGEMENT PSU AT AROUND THE 600W RANGE JUST TO MAKE SURE I HAVE THE EXTRA POWER FOR ANYTHING THAT I THROW AT IT
BUT I ALSO KNOW I DONT NEED TO GO OVERBOARD AS WELL
THIS IS MY FIRST TRUE BUILD AS IT STANDS
I KNOW ITS A VERY MILD BUILD IN COMPARISON TO SOME OF THE MAJOR EXTREME GAMING RIGS OUT THERE BUT CONSIDERRING THAT SO FAR I HAVE LESS THAN $550.00 INTO IT SO FAR AND WHEN I COMPARISON PRICED PREBUILT RIGS WITH THE SAME STATS AND THEY ARE GOING FOR AROUND THE $1200-$1800 RANGE I THINK IM DOING PRETTY GOOD SO FAR
THANK YOU GUYS IM GOING TO GO AND CHECK THOSE OUT
I JUST WISH THAT BIO STAR WOULD GIVE A LIST OF ALL OF THE COMPATIBLES THAT YOU CAN USE WITH THIS MOBO LOL JUST INCASE A BEGINNER SUCH AS MYSELF COULD FIND THINGS EASIER
I STILL DONT THINK THAT I HAVE THE PROPER DDR2 FOR THIS THING AS WELL I THINK I WAS SOLD SOME CHEAPO CARDS THAT DONT TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF WHAT I HAVE
BUT MAYBE ILL SEE A DIFFERENCE WITH THE NEW VID/GRAPHICS CARD CAUSE THATS WHERE IT SEEMS TO SLOW DOWN
