Buying a new graphics card - (read first post) in Desktops · Jul 9, 2009

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
Motherboard: Gigabyte P35-DS3
RAM: 4GB DDR2 800MHz
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce 8800 GT
PSU: Corsair 450VX
Monitor: 20" @ 1600x1050 resolution

So, here’s the deal—is it actually worth my money to pick up a new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 275? And more importantly, can my power supply even handle the hit? I noticed the card calls for two 6-pin connectors, but my current unit only has one
Thanks

How to get started with agtech and farming investments? in Business, Accounting & Taxes · Jul 30, 2006

So, I’m currently working with the Agricultural Subsidies Act, dealing with all the numbers regarding federal grants—specifically, you're looking at $5600/acre for establishing permanent crops and then $833/acre annually after that. Just a heads-up though—ever since January 1st, 2008, you absolutely have to be part of the income tax system to qualify. And the big one? The absolute dealbreaker is that you must be officially registered in the Farm Registry.
You might also snag some extra cash from your local county office, but honestly, you’ll have to do your own legwork and call them up to find out what they offer.
