Looking for a new Video Card
I have a Radeon X1300 video card. I noticed that since I installed Windows 7 my FPS in my favorite games has gone down. I want to upgrade my card, I don't have to have the latest $200 video card.
Computer Manufacturer/Model Number Dell OS Windows 7
I have installed an NVidia GeForce 9800 GT and I am happy with it but I am not a gamer.
Computer Manufacturer/Model Number MSI OS Windows 7 Professional 64bit CPU Intel Celeron 2.4 GH Memory 4 GB Graphics Card(s) NVidia GeForce 9800GT Sound Card ATI HDMI Audio Monitor(s) Displays Acer S231HL Dual Monitors Hard Drives Hitachi 300GB ATA Cooling Standard Keyboard Logitech wireless Mouse Logitech wireless Internet Speed Cable
What should I look for when I go shopping at pricewatch?
Preferably something with low power requirements. Dell's aren't known to have strong PSU's.
It also depends on what your favourite games and max price limit is.

I love my 9800gtx+ it does what it needs to and copes well with COD4 and crysis engine, I haven't hit a game yet that it doesnt cope with and it runs below 50C

XFX ow has a 9800 gt that is a revision, they call the "green version" because it doesn't require a 6 pin power connection.
