Graphic Card recommendation!

richardphat · 06-14-08, 12:08 AM

Hi folks, its the little bratz again! I am just asking helps about graphic cards. I want to buy a graphic card, a cheap one with good quality. My window is running by a dual core processor with 2.6ghz from AMD 64. Right now i have a Geforce 6150 Le + and it really sucks! And my motherboard has 1 pci-e 16x left and 2 or 3 pci slot left!

Just picked up an ATI 3850 256mb for 80 euros myself and am very pleased with it, but if you have a bit more to spend you really cant go wrong with a 9600gt or a 3870. If you can get a good price on a 8800GT those are worth looking into aswell.

I'll second the 8800 GT... Not sure what your budget is for a new card but IMO the XFX Alpha Dog 8800 GT with 512 MB is a great bang for your buck at $180.

Yep, the 8800GT 512Mb is the one to get if your budget allows it.
but be aware if you want that card you will need at least a 600Watt PSU (Power supply unit) to handle it

Well thats the problem i dont know the information about the power supply. I explore some time to look for details about power supply info but i cant find it!

I'm thinking dual 3870's would be a great price / performance sweet spot!
