Looking for GPU for HP XW8200.

[istoledgoods]

Hi, my friend has this computer. http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/q...11976_div.html

The computer has 2 PCI, 3 PCI-X, 1 PCI Express slots and 1 PCI Express x16 Graphics Bus.

He wants to know what kind of graphics card he should get. And is the Intel Xeon 3.20 GHz (2 CPUS) (2 MB L2 cache) good enough. He plays games like COD and Crysis.

Thanks!

I clicked on your link and it gave me a page not found message.

As for the graphics card, we'd need more information regarding the power supply in your friend's system and what resolution he intends to run at.

That's a pretty nice system. The link said it has a 600w (max output) PSU, but doesn't say which kind. It could be fitted with a gaming card, there should be room in the tower.

Without knowing the exact PSU model, it's hard to judge it just on wattage. It should be able to handle something like th ATI 5850. They are a nice gaming card, and resource efficient.

The actual power output is about 500w
