Can someone advise on a PCI Express graphics card upgrade along with memory for my current set up please, I'm looking for the best upgrade at mid -low budget price, a graphics card with 512mb or more and the fastest memory my board is capable of taking, about 2 gig would be fine. It's purely for smooth gaming and playing latest releases, would I need a more powerful power supply as well? Many thanks
