Hello all.

I want to upgrade my video card and I am not sure which one to get. I do not want to spend more than 200 dollars. Below are my comp specs. The games I would like to play is COD 4, Bioshock, etc. with graphics at high settings. I want a 512mb video card.

Hp pavilion a1650e
Amd 64 x2 4600+ 2.4ghz cpu
pci-e nvidia 7500le video card 256mb
2gb ram
300watt psu, which I am sure I will have to upgrade with better video card.

Also, does anyone know what chipset this comp has or where I can find out. I would also like to upgrade the cpu if possible.
 
should have read guide first

well I just read the guide to the video card upgrade. I guess I should have done that first, sorry. I wll download z-cpu and get the required info so that I can get the proper advice.
