Hi,

 

Review this posted document for background information for selecting a video card.  You will need to replace the existing power supply.  What is the purpose for replacing the video card?  Do you have specifc application needs?

Hi,

 

For gaming, I typically recommend the Sapphire 6850 along with the Corsair CX500 or CX600 power supply.
