IBM thinkcentre a50/s50 case

[tayla13]

hey,

I have recently recieved an ibm thinkcentre a50/s50 desktop pc. i got it for free so want to put it to good use, hopefully as a low end gaming pc to play call of duty 1, neverwinter nights 2 maybe call of duty 2 and battlefield 2.

specs:

2.66 Ghz celeron D
512 mb pc2700 ram
onboard intel extreme 2 graphics
40 gb harddrive

As is obvious i need to upgrade the graphics, so i pop it open and what do i see, but only a PCi slot. ****. I have thought about geting a high end pci graphics card, but these are still relatively poor. i would like to upgrade my motherboard, but if anyone knows the case is a very strange design, its very small, smaller than a micro-atx *i think* and i have no idea what it could be, has anyone got any ideas?

At first glance, it appears to be a proprietary board. I rarely see risers like that on OTS boards.

You might be out of luck, then.

well a pci card will handle some of the games you posted and hey you got it for free i would not be upset

It's proprietary. And it only has PCI slots. Gaming is out of the question.

thanx, has n e 1 got an idea on where to get or how to get replacement power supplies for these systems? this is only 200w and the x1300 pci needs 250w
