| Vista Home Premium x64 | Need A New Graphics Card I play games a good bit on my PC (HP Pavilion Dv4). I was just wondering, what would be a good graphics card for my computer. I wanted something Nvidia, but I don't know what kind to get. Any suggestions? |

| Windows Vista Home Basic 6002 Service Pack 2 32-bit | Re: Need A New Graphics Card first of all, if you got a good budget, i would get the Nvidia 275 - 295, depending on your budget. £150 to £200 for gtx 275 £250 for the gtx 280 £250 to £300 for the 285 £250 to £300 for the 295 this is an english shipping company. if you live in america, please tell me. Dom EDIT: yes listen to pizzaman. only if you have 500watt or more psu you will be able to run these cards. |
