Fed up with poor sdrivers causing problems (Do a search on my name and you will see my previous thread)

Never managed to get it resolved so concidering getting a Nvidia card. Running a Dell XPS 8400 so I would think power supply not brilliant so not looking to upgrade, more of a sideways step.

I power a Dell 30" Monitor

Which Nvidia should I get?

Don't think a 660TI would suit without upgrading the PSU and it will cost more too. I would say GTX650 which uses a bit less power than the 7770 but it does perform more like a 7750 in most games.

In a PSU limited PC, there's really only 7750/7770 and 640/650. The 640 can be ruled out since the DDR3 versions are so slow. That leaves the 650 - the range from £90 to £102:

Cheers for the rplies

To be honest I very rarely play games now, so long as the card can power the monitor is the main criteria

Any card can power the monitor, a card that can play games well at that res is a different story. Why upgrade the GPU before the PSU if it's that bad?
