    need advice

    i bought a computer only 6 months ago so i don't know much,anyway i'm uppgrading it already so i need advice for the graphic card. i've decided to go for one of the cards from radeon 9550 family cos that's within my budget.but i don't know witch one exactly,there is loads of them .i've been searching the web for 2 days but without help it's gonna take mutch more.i know there are dodgy ones like SE and maybe powercolor and that XT is maybe the best but it needs power plug in.my system is athlon XP2400+(ordered new A7n8x mobo for overclocking)512mb ram,80 gig ata HD,power supply 300W-i think,dvd rom,dvdrw. ps:excuse my bad english.thank you

    Welcome to the forum Brana,

    It may help if you tell us how much you are willing to spend on the card.

    Also, what is your current card?

    With £60-£70 you might just be able to get a bargain Radeon 9800 Pro from ebay. Have a look.

    or look at the Sales forums or Clearance and B-Grade sections in the Online Stores.

    eg, Overclockers
