Video Card Compatable

Draftrat81 · 12-09-2008, 01:40 PM

I have an Asus P4C600-E Motherboard and I need to know what my options are for video card upgrade. I'm currently using a Radeon 850X with 256mb and I'm having trouble finding something that will work with my motherboard that is atleast a 512. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Haven't found anything on ASUS on a P4C600-E is this a OEM motherboard in a branded PC like a HP?

You know I think I wrote the model number down wrong, I'll check it on my lunch break when I get to the house then come back and Re-post the correct model.

Ok I had the model number wrong for the Motherboard it's an
ASUS P4C800-E DELUXE. Any help finding a good video card upgrade that will work with it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

That's better Intel 875P AGP 8x graphics slot.
Now for the hard part What kind of a budget do you have for this and what power supply do have brand and model or brand and wattage?

I would like to upgrade to a 512mb card without having to sign over my first unborn child. And as for the Power supply I have the spec sheet in front of me and it just says Misc under brand name but it is a 400watt power supply.

The 400w is low by todays standards but a ATI 3650 Pro or a X1650 PRO would work with it > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102781

I purchased the computer in January of 2004, So yeah it's getting a little old. I know this is the video card forum but if I were to upgrade my power supply as well do you have a recommendation ? Once again something that isn't to expensive but will give me better performance.

Thanks!

Thank you for all your help, I'll be making the purchases soon of both the power supply and probably the video card you stated with it.

Cheers!
