is this a separate build from your other thread or what? if not then why another thread? is this a gaming build or what are you planning on doing with the pc?
It all looks like it will be compatible but if your budget allows it and are looking at doing any gaming I'd go with a better GPU.Last edited by RicheemxX; December 9th, 2009 at 12:57 AM.

Rough economy, budget cuts

I need ~$200 for accessories (monitor, speakers, mouse+board), so I had to cut about $200 out of the old one. Sorry for the confusion, I know it can be annoying to have lots of repetitive posts.
To answer your question, just something to play FO3 on in medium-full settings. To be honest, that's it! And also a little memory upgrade.

Thank you for the swift reply. As far as I can tell there is no NVidia graphics card pre-installed. The system is an every-day-machine intended for Photoshop related work as well as light 3d...
Does any graphics card work on any...
