[IMG]http://puu.sh/coIB[/IMG] Is what I have currently, things I already own: Graphics Card: HD 4850 1GB DVD Player and a 550W PSU Do I need something else?
That should be fine, could be worth upgrading your GPU though.
Okay thanks! What would you suggest as a GPU? I currently don't have the money to buy more than that, but I plan to upgrade that soon too.
the new Radeon 7xxx series is coming soon, so depending on how much money you'll have saved by release, you could either look at those cards or wait til the price of the older cards drop
Don't get a green drive. They're super slow.
If you substantially upgrade your GPU, you might also need to buy a new power supply because 550W won't be enough power. Significantly improving your GPU will significantly increase your power consumption. Use newegg's PSU wattage calculator: [url]http://images10.newegg.com/BizIntell/tool/psucalc/index.html?name=Power-Supply-Wattage-Calculator[/url]
