Video Card Update
I want to update my video card for better gaming. I was told the PCI Express
X16 was the best way to go. I was also told that I needed to up my power supply to 470 Watts. Is it safe to go up to 500W? I will also upgrade my RAM to either 2 or 3 GB...I'm not sure yet. Here's my specs: Compaq Presario SR1650NX w/ Windows XP Home Edition SP2 Athlon 64 3500+ 2.2 GHz 2000 MT/s (Mega Transfers/second) Socket 939 Chipset : ATI Radeon XPress 200 Memory Installed 1 GB Speed supported PC3200 MB/sec Type 184 pin, DDR SDRAM 250 GB SATA 7200 rpm 16x DVD(+/-)R/RW DL LightScribe drive Thanks for any help. |
