Hello
I was wondering if a GeForce GTS250 would run properly in my computer, since my motherboard only is PCI-Express 1.0 x16 and the GTS is 2.0 x16
I got a 250W PSU that im sure wont be enough so im thinking about getting a Corsair VX550W PSU to power the GTS250.
Right now im having a GeForce 8500GT and it runs poorly on my new 24" LCD Samsung P2450H monitor, so im thinking a new GPU (GTS250) would be a good idea in order to run games like World of Warcraft, CS:S, Heroes of Newerth (a DotA clone, but with better graphics) more smoothly.
Heres a short overview over my system:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ 2.2GHz
3GB DDR2 Ram
500GB HDD
GeForce 8500GT
And heres some indepth info from SiSoftware Sandra:
