hi im planning to get this computer

http://www.circuitcity.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

and i would like to know which graphics card i should get.. either the geforce 9800gt with 1GB or the geforce 9800gtx+ with 512MB..

I plan to play games such as left 4 dead, teamfortress 2 and bioshock. which graphics card should i get? is the gtx+ more for hardcore gamers? i'm not really sure about the difference in the two. the whole techinical bit is quite confusing. any help would b appreciated.

thank you.

I did not see the size of the power supply in the link. The rest of the computer will be well matched with 9800GTX+ or GTS250 which is newer version of the GTX+ if the PSU can handle it. Recommended PSU size is 450watt with 24amps on the +12 volt rail.

You would be better of with this PSU http://www.circuitcity.com/applications/SearchTools/ite... it is cheaper after MIR but is an under rated highly recommended quality unit. Although it is rated at 400watts it is more powerful than many 500+watt generic PSU's like you linked to.
Being a mini tower the card should fit but you should go for the GTS250 http://www.circuitcity.com/applications/SearchTools/ite... which is the same card in new wrapping.
