New GPU and PSU
Edit: I have a $200 budget for the GPU
My graphics card is old a junky and I'm looking to get a better one.
Current GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6450, 512mb
Budget: $100-199 (for gpu)
Slot Type: PCI Express 2.0
Does this seem good?: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16814121424
I currently have a 250W PSU, so I would need to upgrade that too ..?..
I can't go over that budget for the GPU.
Suggestions for new GPU and PSU?
Specs:
(I went pre-built because I won a gift card for that store)
Spoiler:
GPU Budget: $200
PSU Budget: $100 or less
Also I'm in Canada so newegg.ca is fine
Thanks,

Re: New GPU and PSU
I assumed the budget was for both.
For the GPU you can get a 560 Ti for ~$220 and use the mail in rebate and it will take it down to about $200.
Newegg.com - MSI N560GTX-Ti-M2D1GD5/OC GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Newegg.com - ZOTAC AMP! ZT-50302-10M GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Post your budget for the PSU and I'll find one that's suitable to your needs. Also, what are your current specs?NEED HELP BUILDING A PC? PM ME

Re: New GPU and PSU
Get a 6950 when they're on sale for 200, which is quite often; also, get a 600-650w PSU so you can get the most out of your system.
