i was interested in 550 ti as it fits my budget and i heard its very good with gaming too but i need good suggestions as i dont know if it fits or will it work properly etc. i cannot change my specs i can only change my graphics card and power supply so i want the most of it

that isnt a very good psu with just 16a on the 12v rail
to run agtx 55ti youll need abetter su
also how many ghz your core 2 duo has (model?)
