Graphics card upgrade for XPS 210
Hi everyone,
I bought a XPS 210 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz about 10 months ago. Initially I decided to go with the basic graphics card that came with the system, but now I think its high time to upgrade to a better card.
I was hoping you folks could provide me with some recommendations for PCI Express x16 graphics cards?
Thanks

I use the ATI HD 3450, its not a bad card. It plays my Unreal Tournament game, and it supports my Blu-ray films.

Being a slim line model you are limited to the size of card, also your PSU is 275w, you are also limited to a type of card. There are three cards come to mind, there are, ATI HD 3450, ATI HD 4550 and the nVidia 8600GT. All these cards have to be low profile cards. You can view your manual from this link,
