Graphics Card And Ram Help!!?

Those are the ones. Remember a psu upgrade is required to run any of those cards. If you do not have a brand preference go for the 5770. If you want nvidia then grab the gtx260.

If this fits in your budget it would be nice
Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-550VX 550W ATX12V V2.2 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply - Power Supplies

The ultimate plan would be to grab a new motherboard, cpu and ram within a year to really appreciate the gpu.

can someone tell me if my cpu is dual core? its a amd athlon 64 x2 4200+. cause im thinking of replacing it with a better model. what cpu should i upgrade to without replacing the motherboard now?

run cpuz to give us more info on your cpu and motherboard.

If it is a socket 939 then do not waste your money on a cpu upgrade. If it is am2 then there are some possibilities.

Honestly I would save the money for a new mb, cpu and ram.
