wooly-back-jack 10 Posted July 17, 2009 maybe post the rest of your PC spec and some of the chaps here will give you better advice on what would be suitable. i.e. no point getting a gtx260 if you are on a pentium 4 1.8ghz and are still on AGP not PCi-e lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wooly-back-jack 10 Posted July 17, 2009 http://support.gateway.com/s/emac/1015574R/1015574Rcl2.shtml ? hmm not sure your processor meets minimum spec? anyone else help on this? you have a PCi-e slot so thats good news, I wouldnt put a top end gfx card in that machine though, it would be a total waste.

wooly-back-jack 10 Posted July 17, 2009 tbh mate I'd sell/give that pc to family friend and start from scratch lol If you aren't familiar or confident with building your own, many online retailers do it for you to the spec you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
