    Default Graphics Card Upgrade

    Hey I've currently got a Nvidia 7300 GS which is rather poor as graphics cards go and I've had a few problems. I'm thinking of upgrading to an 8800 as I plan on going dual-screen in the very near future and doing a little gaming, so this would be slightly more appropriate. I imagine I would also need to upgrade my 250W PSU.

    Graphics card: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(38393)...20MB-PCIE.aspx

    PSU: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/124922

    Would they go well together, is the PSU Reliable and is it a good price? Budget £90 max.

    That graphics card is the original GTS, not the newer-gen one.

    Idk about that exact one as i've never used it, but in general all budget PSU's are crap, cause when they blow you'll know about it.
