i have spoken to nvidia they said that the cpu i have should meet their minimum requirements "dual core" and that my current gpu is just about sufficient to run the 3d vision. it says it supports it.


my pc is old i know but i don't have enough money to do full up grade or make one.

but if i could upgrade the gpu what should i get and what psu should i get i think i could fit 11 inch gpu in their.

i think i just need one gpu and not 2 sli them because il have to buy another motherboard which supports sli.

if you require further info plz ask
 
when u say q6600 you are referring to a cpu for the 775 socket mother board and 560ti/570 gpu.
so these 2 are the things i should upgrade to get better 3d experience.


and what about the psu


could you make us shopping basket so i know what i need thanks. sorry im still learning
 
i can not build a new rig at once, i can only buy upgrade part like £150 each part or less the tht.

i dont know if its worth it to upgrade the gpu and cpu and psu on the lga775 board if its going to cost same amount of money to make new system.
