  • best graphics card for the G41M-ES2L

    Also want to upgrade my power supply from 300 watts to 500 watts.



    This is what i have
    Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard & Intel C2D Bundle - Gigabyte G41M-ES2L MOBO, Core 2 Duo E7500 2.93GHz, 2GB DDR2, 500GB HDD, Case & PSU at TigerDirect.com


    Also running dual boot XP and Vista both 32-bit.Also added another gig of ram for a total of 3 gigs.Can play C&C3 on low settings,but the
    Intel GMA X4500 sucks.

      Just picked up a PNY GeForce 9800 GT 1024MB GDDR3 and a BFG 450 watt psu.Can now play all my C&C games on max settings(even A-A) with no slow down what so ever.C&C3,Red Alert 3 and Kane's Wrath look like totally different games.I'm a happy camper.I'm still going to buy a larger psu and more ram later,but this will do for now.Thanks for the input.
