Witch Video car should i get?
GeForce GTS 250 1GB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card // GeForce GT 220 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP I am looking at these two cards, the video card i have now is a Radeon X1300 256MB DDR2 PSI Express x16.

You will need a new powersupply, dell and other OEM's are known putting in a PSU that has just enough to keep it alive. Alternatively, you could buy a card that doesn't need external power. Nvidia cards are overpriced, get ATI this time. Something like a 4670 would run without a new powersupply

GTS 250 is far more powerful than GT 220. You need good brand 500W to run GTS 250.
