Hello! I thought I'd ask for some advice for improving my current build as its graphics board is not suited for gaming. The thing is, I bought an HP desktop (M9564.SC) as I could not build the rig myself due to certain factors. It has served me well so far, but most new games that I'd like to play are so graphic-intensive that the graphics board is simply not powerful enough to run them to my liking. So I'm thinking about getting a new one...
Some specs:
AMD Phenom™ X3 8650 at 2,3 GHz
8192 MB DDR2 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce™ GT130 756MB
I'm running Vista 64-bit. It's a heavy OS, but my PC can handle it pretty well. I don't think I need to change anything other than the graphics board right now. The thing is, it's not a gaming card... I hear it's much more suitable for other types of programs. The processor is alright for gaming. It could be better but I'm satisfied with the way it is right now.
So, any suggestions? I'm looking for a GPU for something around 100 euro. More than 130 may be a bit too much for my budget.
