I am getting a Dell Vostro 230 reloaded as a hammy down and I am hoping to be able to upgrade it enough to the point where I can play a game or two (Rome Total War 2 specifically). The processor is an Intel Core 2 Duo E7500(2.93 GHz), and I will have 4gb of ram. I definitely have to upgrade the graphics card. Ideally, I would like to get by with the current processor and get a new graphics card that is reasonably priced.
My question is a) What graphics cards priced around or under $150 are good enough to play some of the latest games? and b) Can I get by with the new graphics card, the current processor, ram, and a 300 watt power supply?
I don't need a supercomputer, just one that is solid enough so I can play a game or two without any skipping.
Thanks!
