I have been running low on my PoV 8500GT graphics card for about a year, only but recently i accuired the money to buy a new graphics card, so I got hung up between "pov GTS 250 512MB DDR3" and "inno3d 9800GT 1GB DDR3".
My current gpu is DDR2, and my biggest worry is that a DDR3 gc wouldn't work on my mobo.
So my questions are, which graphics card is better between the two? will a DDR3 graphics card work on my current specs? Will the new graphics card run at maximum power with my specs?
450Watt PSU
E4500 2.2GHz c2d cpu(oc'd to 2.93GHz)
945GCM-S2L mobo http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/...ProductID=2669
64bit vista os
2gb ram(upgrading to 4gb pretty soon)
Thanks in advance
PS: What's with the PCI-e 2.0? Should I worry abt it? or is it simply a power managment solution?
