Thats it!
Ive had enough with my pc,Everytime i try to run a game it usualy lets me down by lagging or bad graphics But i just cant afford a new computer yet. Does anyone here know where i can get a cheap NVIDIA Geforce 6200 or a similar card from in the Uk?(Cheaper the better.) It had to be AGP i think,Please take a look at my mobo info. Also a Power supply to power it? Thanks

A 6200 isn't going to be a major upgrade, you know...

Yeah, scan.co.uk is the site and they do have cheaper 6200's but they are 128mb and have slower clock and memory speeds, the price range is like £27-£40 so you wouldn't be saving very much if you went for the cheaper ones.

As for a Power supply Unit (PSU) Watts aren't every thing you need to look at the 12V line and see how many amps are on it.(the more the beter) Also make sure because it's an HP that it doesn't use a custom PSU connector, I know some dells have PSU that have conecctors that are custom to there mother board so you can go out and buy any one and you have to buy one from them. So make sure HP doesn't have its own PSU connection.
