[SOLVED] GPU for HP compaq elite 8300 sff

[OtB_BlueBaron]

Hi, i just downloaded the game anno 1404, but it won't launch i think because my pc doesn't have a GPU. The game requirements are - DirectX®9-compatible graphics adapter with 128 MB RAM (DirectX®10 with 512 MB recommended)

Get the 2GB Version , you need to attch the LP bracket , it's in the box.

so i should go for the 2GB one instead? will my psu handle it ok?

Yes it will be fine , the card will run , get it's powerfrom the PCIE slot. Low draw system will be fine.

just ran a benchmark test for the game and apparently i should be able to play it with the hp built in graphics, weird. Anyone know why the game would fail to launch?
