ok, my system
2.66ghz P4
768MB ram
2 hard drives (120GB/40GB)
a cd-burner
dvd drive
tv tuner
sound blaster sound card
and the AGP Geforce4 MX 420
My system is 3 years old, when i bought it, i upgraded to a Geforce TI 4200, died out on me... a year later (2003) bought an ATi 9800.. also died on me.. both cards mainly died on me cause i overclocked them (i little to much i say)... after i killed 2 cards, im now wanna buy a new card and leave it at stock speeds lol... I've been looking at newegg and found the EVGA 6600GT and 6800NU.. 6600GT priced at $160ish and the 6800NU at $190ish...
Seeing that i have added more components to the dell system (extra hard drive, ram, and tv tuner) do i have to worry about power supply requirement on both cards? If not, which is the best choice between those two cards? the same if yes...
I wanna play new games such as HL2 and BF2.. i would aprreciate all the help..
thank-you
