crimsonstag84 said:You're in luck, your motherboard supports plenty of AM3 CPUs if you update to the UEFI BIOS... though if you have a bit more cash to burn:

1 x Intel Core i3, socket LGA 1366, BOX , 1.5MB cache
1 x MSI R6770, 1GB DDR5 128 bits, Dual-Link DVI+HDMI+D-Sub

$437(ADM-ZG)

Your current CPU would be a massive bottleneck for this card, but even then, it's miles ahead of the HD 2600.😉

Yeah, I figured the processor might cause some issues.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the answer. Even if I don't have the money for all of this right now, at least I know what I'm aiming for. 🙂

Best, Sam

Hey everyone.

I'm looking for some advice. Which graphics card actually makes sense for this build? I don't want to waste money on an upgrade that won't offer any real benefit.

Intel Core 2 Duo (2500.0 MHz)
GA-M56S-S3
4 GB DDR2
Chieftec 500W

ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO 512MB (current setup)

Best, Visa
