I have a Windows XP Home Edition version 2002 SP-3, Pentium(R)D 3.00 GHZ,1 GB RAM with VGA card of RADEON X300/X550 series and RADEON X300/X550 series secondary ( might be of 128 MB). I need to replace it with a VGA of 512 MB or higher than that( of nVIDIA or ATI ). I need to know the power available ( best is 350 to 420 watt) in my system and also which VGA card shall be most compatiable for my system.

If your PSU ranges 350-420 Watts you need to check the specifaction of the graphics adapters you are interested in to find out how much power they need to run all their features, we cant really choose a video card for you can we?

hi
VGA is the output to your display you need to know whether it fits your mobo slot
if you need to check your PSU it should be labelled with output figures
Do you mean the mobo has onboard graphics and a graphics card? make sure to disable it (onboard) in BIOS if you want to run the slot card
