Trying to figure out what I can upgrade my graphics too

[Nuttius]

Hey guys, i have the specs for my computer, and I just want to know what I can upgrade my graphics card too. I already have a Nvidia GeForce DDR2 PCIe 1gb card, just wondering if I can go with something different. I'll worry about the price later. Just want to know. Thanks

all this info is useless, what kind of pc do you have? motherboard/cpu/psu?

If you already have a pcie card, you should be able to upgrade to nearly anything, but since it looks like an older rig, i'd recommend a 7750 to try and avoid bottlenecks (and waste your money.) plus, the 7750 is low on power usage.

it is an custom built. but Intel motherboard

PSU=500w
Intel Core Duo 2

 

[daswilhelm]

i would think a 7770 at least. depending on what core 2 duo you have, you could get a 7850.

you should list out what Brand/Model PSU. You gave us the Brand of your Graphics card, but not the model. It's basically telling us you own a Ford, but we don't know if it's a Fiesta, Mustang, or F350.

well this is the exact graphics card that is in the computer. http://www.amazon.com/PNY-GeForce-PCI-Express-Graphics-VCGG2101XPB/dp/B003O2RXA6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1361852903&sr=8-1&keywords=pny+geforce+210
my friend gave me his computer and I want to upgrade it. now when you say 7750, you mean HD? DDR3? 2?

and here is the exact CPU in the PC

I would be happy to run anything up to 650ti without any major bottlenecks

For 7750 get the GDDR5 version

650ti > 7770 > 650 > 7750

the actual power supply make/model would really help
