Looking for some advice. I have limited funds, but am looking to upgrade a slightly older system.
Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3 (2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090206-1234)
Language: English (Regional Setting: English)
System Manufacturer: Velocity Micro, Inc
System Model: DP965LT_
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 2030MB RAM
Page File: 585MB used, 3320MB available
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT/GTO
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce 7900 GT/GTO
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Display Memory: 256.0 MB
Current Mode: 1680 x 1050 (32 bit) (60Hz)
I was looking to get a gtx260. I know that it will definitely provide a decent bump up in graphics ability of the machine, but not sure if it will be at its potential or even worth it over say.. a 4850. Im eventually going to go and upgrade piece by piece, but certainly am going to start with the card.
Any advice?
