the pcmag review says that it should be able to handle a 9500gt but im not sure.

some of my computer specs are:
intel core 2 quadcore q8200
6GB
1 dvd drive
300w psu 12V/19A
liteon ps 5301-08HA

It has an integrated graphics card at the moment.
It has a pci slot, pci-e slot, pci-e x16 slot.

what are the chances of it being able to run a decent graphics card? say.. for... modern warfare 2 or left 4 dead 2 on medium graphics/res a least?

i wouldnt count on it.

a low power card like a 9600gso would work, and likely play both those games on lowish settings.

300w isnt alot though, especially with a fairly demanding system already.

4670 should work
