What do you recommend, techies? I'd prefer to stay under $100, and I will not go over $200. |
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.
Only downside with a GT 430 is that it's a 50 watt card. The PSU in that system, as far as I can tell is rated at 220 watts with 168 watts (14 amps) available at 12 volts. You should be OK but it's teetering on the edge of my PSU size comfort zone.
