Vintage Video Card ;-}

[Rol n Rik]

Hello,

I have a Compaq Presario S5100NX 2.6Ghz Processor 2GB Ram and a 250 watt /14 A Power Supply.

It is EX - Treeeeemely Slow when it comes to trying to Attempt ADOBE Premiere and others.
I am However, able to Run Adobe Premiere 6.0 -Illustrator and Photoshop on an OK to Poor scale.

I am in search of a VIDEO/ Graphics card that is Compatible with my setup.

I will eventually get my 3.6Ghz Quad Core i7 Later.

I was Suggested a GForce 9400 But later found out the Power Supply requirements.
My Computer has 250 Watts and 14 Amps
Recommended is 300 Watts and 18 Amps

Can this request be achieved? Or am I asking to much of an old Beast?

Please keep me posted.
Thank you.

Wow that is old nvm I once had an IBM ps/2 with a 16mhz 386. Sadly there isn't much that you can do with this machine for that purpose. You could try to find a cheap 2400 pro agp or better but that won't be cheap. This system really isn't worth the money unless this is all you got and will have for some time. 3650 agp or maybe but not cheap is the 4650 however power may be an issue.

if your going to get a quad core i7 later, why not just invest in a good quality psu now and then have your pick of gfx cards?
