I only ask because sometimes adding a high end gpu can actually mess things up with box temps and stuff and may not fit your config.

Good luck

I'm looking to upgrade to the cassette drive, I've got a ton of old tapes laying around that I can record my programs on.

I run a asus m2n32-sli deluxe wifi edition. AMD 6800+ (3.0 ghz) dual core. 4 gigs corsair ddr2 800mhz xms2 ram, corsair hx620w power supply, and evga 8800 gt 512mb ddr3.on a 22 inch samsung monitor.

Plays everything i throw at it.

look in craigslist you can find some good prices for some video cards, although i recommend picking one up at fry's.

I've actually got a fairly sweet system I just put together last month. AMD Phenom II quad core 2800, ASUS MB, 4 gigs of ram. I'm using the on board video but its got HDMI output and digital audio so I've got it running on my 60" Sony TV. I love the look on peoples faces when they see me surfing the internet on a screen that big. I think I'm gonna download some games and see how it runs when I start pushing it, I don't do much other than burn movies so its like taking the Titanic to go fishing..... a little bit of overkill.
