    You can only find out your power supplies details by opening the side of your case, and reading the specs on the label on the side of the power supply.

    I'd say a 7600GT. Will run on max > http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=412319

    Ah right, thanks.

    Hmm, it just hit me that I'd have no idea what to look for with the Power Unit.

    Update: Thanks again, I'm going to phone the PC manufacturer and ask them what PSU my model has to get round opening it :P

    I found a decent 7600 here, under £100 which is nice:

    Oops, sorry.

    Well, looks like my PSU is only 250w, so thats my upgrade screwed

    GeForce 7600GT without any doubts.

    What PSU you have? Manufacturer and model.

    Sorry I don't know the Manu/Model, only that its 250w - I had to phone the PC supplier (Higrade) to find that out, cos its still under warranty and I'm putting off invalidating it :/

    I know Nvidia says at least a 350w is required for their 7600 and higher, its on their website :(

    When you find it, then post it here. Many barebone systems have 250W PSU and they can handle some serious power hunger components, but it depend on manufacturer and model.

    Cheers.
