    Newbie on graphic card

    Btw I'm not a part's changing kind of guy but even I changed out my PSU. I'd just say have a buddy handy if things don't go well. But I made a list, lol even took digital pics so I knew what had to be hooked up to what connector, etc etc and it went well. Also there's lots of good PSU's...

    What are your thoughts on this poor generation?

    I agree with the OP...that's why I bought a Sapphire x1950xt for $150. Plus I have no money lol.

    Is 620W Power Supply enough for 8800GTX?

    What 3rd party software can tell me what kind of load my system is having on my PSU? I just bought a new psu and it works great, but I prob overspent a bit. I'm just interested in finding out how many watts I really need is all. Thx.

    What's more important? more mem or higher quality mem?

    My current rig has 2 gig of 4300 ddr2 ram in it. I can upgrade on the current motherboard only to 5400, 4 gig total. So should I add 2 more gig of the 4300 or replace it with 2 gig of 5400? I can't afford both, so which would run games faster?

    PSU recommendation

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010320058+50001459&name=Corsair+Memory%2c+Inc. These have great reviews and have seasonic designs. I'm in a similar situation and when I upgrade, it'll be to one of these 2 cards...GL

    Best $-performance video card right now?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102067 this one runs only $169 after rebate. If you can only run at lower resolutions wouldn't this be cheaper and run faster than the 1950pro?

    Best $-performance video card right now?

    Well it depends on the monitor. The one I have at home is old...so max settings is 1200x1000 (approx). This being the case it'd be a waste to go higher ram on the vid card, right? Just taking that into account since I'm personally looking at a similar scenerio.

    Best $-performance video card right now?

    What about the Saphire 1950xt? It has 256 ram. It's about the same price as the 1950 pro with 512 ram. Should he consider that? What about if he's running in a lower resolution? 1280x1000?

    Is this PSU hurting my video card's performance?

    The PSU has several outlets with differing numbers on them. The only ones I can hook the video card up to are P5 and P6...does this matter.

    Is this PSU hurting my video card's performance?

    Oh and the manuel stated that the card would work if the 12v wasn't hooked up correctly, but performance would suffer. So that's why I'm wondering about the P# being correct.

    Is this PSU hurting my video card's performance?

    Yep that's how it's installed and it seems to work great. The reason I asked the original question was that I've been reading up on PSU's and it seems that the most important factor in the video card working properly is the 12v amps. Like I said earlier, it seems to work fine...but I wanted...
