Vista - Video Card Recomendations

03-01-2009

I have a Dell Dimension E521 with an Athlon 2.3 GH 64X2 Dual Core processor,
2 Gig of memory, that contains an VIDA GeForce 7300 LE video card. If I
were to upgrade the video card what would people recommend , keeping the
price under $100.

I'd put the Radeon HD4830 right there with the 9800GT, IMO just as good, just as overclockable (from the experience I hear from others online) and just as cheap if not a few bucks cheaper.

Both are great cards, and IMO either one would be a great fit.

Hi Marv, if you are getting the HD4830 or the 9800GT, you need a 500W and up PSU.
