Need Video Card , Recommendations?
Specs:
  • AMD Phenom II X4 820 2.80 GHz ( Quad Core )
  • 8 GB DDR3 Corsair Memory
  • Windows 7 64-Bit
  • NVIDIA GeForce 210 <<< PROBLEM


What would you guys recommend? I know that I will need another power supply but I can deal with that. I just bought this computer and put it together ( barebones kit ) , but I realize that I need a good graphics card to better compliment the quad core cpu.

I am looking to spend less that 200$ for the Video Card and would like one from CompUSA if possible. All suggestions are welcome for video cards

Very nice find bro, I might buy that one. Any other suggestions that cost a little less?

I think im going with your second recommendation and yes you're right, I game alot. I recently bought this system from a barebones kit and put it together. My other rig's motherboard and GPU were fried so I decided to pick up a new rig. Once I get me that G-Card you posted, I will be set. Thanks for the help

P.S. - This system also came with a 1.5 TB HDD , thats more space than I could ever use lol

I know bro, bought what I thought was a nice barebones kit. Turns out, the video card was shit. Should've done my research

If you have an AMD, get an ATI video card.
I suggest a 6870.
Newegg.com - ASUS EAH6870 DC&#47;2DI2S&#47;1GD5 Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

6850 is a way better choice, with the 6870 mod you unlock the extra cores and the price difference doesn't make up for the minimal performance gain.

Appreciate the suggestions guys. Im sure anything that I buy will be better than a GeForce 210.. this thing suckssss. I know my CPU is carrying the system right now lol

Any games out now would do fine with something like a 550ti or 560ti. If you are looking for something in the future for a game such as BF3 i would go with a card such as the GTX580 or 570 or ATI 6970 or 5990.
