Hey!!
Well I am planning my next PC upgrade. Current specs:
AMD Phenom X4 9600 @ 2.3Ghz
3GB DDR2 RAM
GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 Chipset
Asus M2N68-LA Mobo
Nvidia Geforce 8500GT with TurboCache
300W HP PSU
Planning to upgrade my graphics card to either the GTS 250 or 9800GTX+ as well as upgrading my PSU.
A few questions:
Which card will give me better performance, GTS 250 or 9800GTX+? I know that they are pretty much the same card as the GTS 250 is just a rebrand but I have heard it consumes less power which I am guessing lowers performance.
Will a Corsair VX550W PSU provide me with sufficent power for the card? It provides 41A on the +12V rail
Please do not suggest any ATI cards as I run a number of CUDA applications on my computer.
Thanks
