That's above the OP's budget, a_tractor.
And we don't even know of the OP's PSU yet.

[Gman450]

the graphics card is a nVidia Geforce GT240 but has "palit" on the fan so i think that is the manufacturer

Didn't get the manufacturer does that matter?

 

[a_tractor]

a 300w psu will rut the gpu fine.

 

[a_tractor]

the gt 240 that is.

Yes, it does.
Maybe it is a generic one. Did you get it with your case?
But a 300W should be okay to run a GT240.
How much Amps does it deliver on it's +12v rail?

Yep bought the computer as a whole, Not sure what amps it does.

 

[Gman450]

On the side of the PSU there should be a chart like this one.

Check the amps it delivers on the +12v rails and report back.

 

[tally2425]

+12v 19A Max not to exceed 268w i believe hard to work out the writing ha

I guess that should be okay.
