Hi guys. I am planning to buy new graphich card because I am getting bored with the one I am using now - It can't run almost every new game and it doesn't support 2.0 shaders. I am planning to get something like nVidia GeForce 7600GT, and I am wondering will it work with 230W power supply, or do I need to buy new power supply too?

Do yourself a favor and get a larger name-brand unit. You'll be better off in the long run.

''name-brand unit'' What would that supose to be? ( I don't understand some English expressions!)

By ''name-brand unit'' , we are talking about a good reputable manufacturer. Some examples would be Antec, Thermaltake, Coolermaster, Enermax, Mushkin, etc. Most Nvidia cards require a 400 watt or larger power supply to function correctly. An ATI card normally needs at least a 350 watt power supply. IMO, the 230 that you have will not be able to run any kind of good graphics card.

what's available to you in croatia is another story

what will fit in your computer case is another problem

get a corsair 620watt modular

got that 2 weeks ago - never been happier (cable management in a antec 900 was quite misc though hey?)

That's the main problem, another one is money...

Thank's guys, I'll figure something out then.

Gaming is an expensive hobby, guess that's why I gave it up long ago. Did enjoy Myst once I got a new computer and could run it.

Yes, every month something new! Computer like Dell, Antec, Coolermaster, Alienware are wary rare in Croatia and they cost about 120,000kn which is 20,000$. So I can only dream about it!
