Reccommendation sought: PCI socket graphics card
My new PC's integrated graphics play surprisingly well but when I bought it I originally intended to use the ATI X1950 pro from my old PC in my new one, which is also PCI slotted. The old PC ran XP and the new one is Windows 7. Now I read that with Windows 7, driver support for ATI cards is not so good, and that NVidia seems the way to go. It was my intent to economize by re-using my X1950pro ( and my 650W PSU from my old rig ) but I don't want to run into hassles and may as well bite the bullet, as they say and just buy a new card.
Can anybody recommend a good NVidia card ( at least 256 ) that will work in a PCI slot? What would the power requirements be. Would the 300W unit in my new PC handle it?
Thanks again.
