I have an NVIDIA G210 that came with my HP Elite 7000 (i7 Quad Core 2801 MHz; 4G DDR3; 300 Watt motherboard).
My PC is hooked to my Full HD TV via HDMI - meaning my TV is my PC monitor.
My PC has one primary function: we use it to watch high resolution movie files, sometimes so-called REMUX files that are anywhere between 20-40 gigs per film.
The only problem I have experienced is five-second half-screen pixellation when I reverse or forward the movie file, and this does not always occur.
A friend of mine told me that my graphics card was old and worthless, and that I should upgrade it to something decent.
My friend insisted that a better graphics card would wildly enhance the quality of the movie files we watch.
Is this true?
Given that I am unwilling to change my power supply, what is the best graphics card you you recommend given the purpose for which we use the PC?
