Questions:

I am trying to identify a video card, and power supply for my sons unit.

I found one: BeForce GTX 460 OC 1 GB gddr5 - Price $180

Can you assist me in a card with similar performance for ~$100 for the Intel DP67BG motherboard (to start out with)

My current configuration is:

Case: Antec DF-85 (ATX case)

Motherboard: Intel DP67BG - P67 Chipset

Processor: Intel i5-2500K

Graphics card: ????

Hard Disk Drive: Segate 7200 (2) TB

Memory: Crucial Ballistix 4 GB (2GB X 2) DDR3 - BL2KIT25664BN1608

Power Supply - I am not sure what size.

Optical Drive - I guess I will take it from his desktop (purchased two years ago)

Monitor - I will use his monitor

I am sorry to bother you with this and I know I am asking alot.:

I guess I am asking if you could assist me in

1. A graphics card

2. A, power supply - not sure about watts and type in an ATX case

3. If you feel that this is a good configuration. If not, could you direct or tweek/modify the components? (i.e. - not enough memory, etc.)

Best Regards.

Hello Chris,

It is a bit difficult for me to recommend any parts for your system.

I can only provide some links to you but you will need to investigate further.
