Hi.
I'm new on this forum, well to be true I came just for this thread. 🙂

I need approximately value of my PC and/or I need some new graphic card..
I'm from croatia so theres bigger prices so I'll put my price and your price..

PC configuration:
Procesor: AMD Athlon II X4 620 (Quad core) 2.60
Memory (or RAM): 1×2 gb and 1×4 gb
Video card: ATI HD4670 1GB
Motherboard: MSI 760GM-E51, AM3
Power: 420W
HDD: 750GB and I dont know anything else

I dont know if you need anything else If you do, tell me.. 🙂

If the configuration is good except my video card that is a little bit old and I cant run lets say Euro Truck SImulator on medium without laging could you please tell me only price of video card and some else video card to max 100 dollars, or about 90 euros..

Bottom line, if graphic card is bad and configuration is good, tell me some new graphic card that can run new games without any problems (mostly ETS2 on med/high and COD4 250 FPS) and price that i can get for HD 4670 1GB

I dont think we are allowed on the forums to tell you what you can get if you sell a particular piece of hardware. I will just say that the 4670 is quite old now and was a lower midrange card when new, so it would not sell for much.

Your cpu is decent but not really that fast. If the motherboard permits it, you could try overclocking it to say 3ghz or above. In any case, I would say that you could probably get a decent performance increase by upgrading your graphics card to something like a HD7750 or HD7770.

Okay..
I was watching HD7770 and they are not bad.. But can my power supply run that graphic?

So long as there is a 6-pin PCIe connector, there should not be any problems. The HD7770(80W) is not really that power hungry, in fact it will likely use less power then your current 4670(59W) when idle.

If you're worried, I would suggest going for a 7750 instead. It does not require a separate power connector.
 
A good 420W should run a 7770 no problem. However, it really depends of what the exact power supply is. OP, can you take a look at the sticker on the side of the PSU and tell us what it says?
 
Power supply: Thermal Master 420 PMSR
One guy told me that I cant run HD 7770..
So he gave me this
Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7770 OC, 1GB DDR5 + power supply Xilence 420W Redwing edition

But when I googled a little bit I found out a cheaper graphic card but better, and then I saw some "mistakes" with it..

Graphic VTX HD6850 1GB DDR5 256 bit + power supply LC Power Silent Giant LC6560GP3
And those problems:

Well I dont really know a lot about that.. So I'm asking you guys to give me some your opinion.. HD 6850 and 7770 + my power supply, xilence or LC power
EDIT: Yeah I saw now test.. Which means that its not bad power supply.. lol

LC power is also crap. Corsair VS450 is the lowest I'd go, next up are Antec VP450 and Corsair CX430. I would rather have a quality unit and a 7750 than a crap unit and a 7770. The PSU is the backbone of your whole PC.

CX430, every time.
 
Always buy from seasonic or corsair. Their just so much better than anything else. Even tough higher end coolermasters are quite decent too
 
Looks good. It'll be a very nice improvement over what you have and next time you upgrade, you hopefully won't have to replace the PSU 🙂
 
I just need to upgrade my HDD next.. On windows 7 rating (my computer - properties) its on 4.9..
Transfering 10GB file from HDD to USB goes for 45 minutes.. Its really slow
