Please Help Me Pick a New Compatible Graphics Card

[ghost101]

So, I recently go a cyberpowerPC computer as a birthday gift. Everything with the system is great and runs perfect, my only gripe if the graphics cards is a little to weak. Here are the system specs.

Processor 3.6 GHz FX-Series Quad-Core FX-4100
RAM 8 GB DDR3
Hard Drive 1024 GB SATA III
Graphics Coprocessor NVIDIA GT610
Graphics Card Ram Size 1024 MB
Number of USB 2.0 Ports 6
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Computer Memory Type DDR3 SDRAM
Hard Drive Interface Serial ATA-600
Hard Drive Rotational Speed 7200 RPM
Optical Drive Type 24x DVD±RW

I am looking for a graphics card that will be a little better than this one, I looked on Amazon today, and this graphics card the computer came with is only like 40 bucks...I would like to get one with a bit more power. I like to play MMOs mainly, and am playing Star Wars The Old Republic right now, and it performs decent, but the game play can be a little to choppy, especially in higher player population areas.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Sucks I have to do the cable management all over again, but I think I will do option 2 as you guys have suggested. Thank you for your exceptional help Memarchon you help has been great!

Happy to help

Curious, is this version of the GPU better than the sapphire one? iIt is only 10 bucks more, and someone post on a different forum saying it was a bit better.

http://www.amazon.com/PowerColor-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-AX7770-1GBD5-DH/dp/B008EWQU0K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1363297202&sr=8-1&keywords=amd+7770+color

is it acctually better? or no?

Well they have the same clocks so I don't know why they said that powercolor's version is better...

Would I get the same results with the powercolor version? I ask becaise I have Prime membership on Amazon and for the extra 10 bucks I would prefer the 2 day ship time (new egg is like 22 dollars for 2 day ship). I would prefer to buy them off Amazon, as it would get to me faster and less cost. Is there even a different with Sapphire and powercolor? Can I use either or?

Yes you will have the same results. So if you prefer the amazon one take the amazon's offer .
