I am looking to upgrade my video card on an old computer. I have no clue whether I need a PCI or PCI express card.
Just some things that may help:
I have a Gateway 505GR , has a 300 Watt power supply and I'm currently using a Radeon x700 Pro card. I'd like to upgrade to something better ($100-$150 range max).
So I guess the questions are:
1. I know my current card is PCI, but how can I tell if I can run something that is PCI Express?
2. What kind of cards are decent in this price range/compatibility with this *** PC?
I'd appreciate any help that you can give. I'm clueless on this stuff.
