XPS/Dimension 600

Not sure about the motherboard but depending on your needs for the graphics card both the 8800GT and 9800GT are good choices.

The motherboard is Dell. It is not replaceable except with another 600 board.

I would second the 8800/9800 GT's

I went for GeForce 9800GT 512 MB, GDDR3, PCI-Express, 1xDVI, HDMI

 

Thank you both.

Your very welcome and good choice :smileywink:

Oh cool, so either of these graphics cards should fit correctly and work accordingly with the motherboard / processor. I was looking at the GeForce 9800 GT which got excellent ratings. Thanks a million for your help.

If you had two cards and they were connected then you were or capable of running SLI. You system will not support dual 9800's so you are correct and you will no longer have SLI.

I would not worry about it as the single 9800 will run circles around you old cards even in SLI

The dual cards have nothing to do with your harddrive configuration.

Hi I have another question regarding the graphics card. I bought it (GeForce 9800GT 512 MB, GDDR3, PCI-Express, 1xDVI, HDMI), installed it, but I had to remove what looks like (2) Graphics cards both 6 series as my previous card was a NVIDIA 6800 GE Force I have  RAID 0 and RAID 1 mirrored. Is this why there were two cards? Which now means I’ve one empty slot…is this right?   So I’ve no SLI?   http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.aspx?sku=364446

Hi, that’s excellent, thank you for immediate response. :manhappy: I thought maybe I had made a clear mistake in not ordering a second card! The card is running smoothly with such games as COD4 and BF 2142 as I can see the difference already. But now I’m thinking should I’ve gone for the 1GB instead of the 512 MB card? But as long as it’s running well with motherboard then I’m happy.   I got this XPS in Feb of 2006, but would like to get new XPS late 2009/10 so no doubt Vista will improve as an OS and the drastic change in RAM, ROM, Cards and so on plus I should have gone for DUAL CORE than RAID (Mirrored).
