Hello All!
New to the building/upgrading world so bare with me!
I am looking to upgrade my graphics card for my older PC in order to run games such as mists of pandaria. Not looking for anything crazy since I know my cpu is holding me back. Only looking to use this card for 1 year - 1.5 years before I can afford building a new one.
Please let me know your suggestions and advice!
HP Pavilion
System Model FQ425AA-ABA-a6655f
BIOS: Phoenix- AwardBIOS v6.00PG
Windows vista home premium
Processor: AMD Phenom 9150e Quad Core Processor ~1.8GHz
Memory: 4990MB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430
PSU: (Still need to check but from online i found it to be 300 Watts)
Here are more specifications (I.E. Case size) to make sure everything would work with this new card)

I have no allegiance to any companies for buying parts, just that they work properly.
My Budget on this is around $200... Less is obviously better but I want a quality card that will last me a little bit.
Also I have room in my budget for a new psu if needed.
Let me know what you guys think! Thanks so much
