I think it would, but its still tempting to buy none the less isnt it? Can your power supply run the card though is another question? |

You PC would bottleneck the card, but it would be better than the one you have right now, just make sure that you PSU has enough power to run it.

The 6600gt would be temporary until I can build another comp. |

I agree your system would definantly bottleneck that card. Just make sure you dont void your sony's warrenty in the process of putting it in!  |

When you build your new comp you may be wanting to switch to pci express as well. You should wait a bit. A 9200se sucks ya, but its better than my gf2 for the time being. |

You should really wait and get a Socket T Intel so you can get the PCI-E version of the 6600GT. |
