But I need a graphics card>_< but I don't know anymore on what to get... should I just order and use my computer without a graphics card fora a while and then buy a graphics card later?

Your computer won't run without a graphics card, not an option. A 6800gt would suit your needs for a long time, I'm still running a 6600gt and see no need to upgrade, I get great frame rates at medium quality settings in HL2, Doom3 and all the newer games. Or if your set on the 7800, just get a cheapo X300 or 6200 for less than $50 to hold you until you can afford to upgrade.

I also suggest dropping ram to 1gb, the only common apps that currently use more than 1gb are BF2 and photoshop, but both will run OK with 1gb, and its easy to upgrade latter.
 
what do you mean my computer won't run without a graphics card!????

Would it be cheaper though to get 2 1gig sticks together as a pack???

I was just planning on not getting the graphics card until I saved up some money..... but I can't even run my computer????
 
>_< sorry I forgot the mobo doesn't have integrated graphics

as far as the ram....any comments on what I posted above?

What should I do...>_<
