New economic graph

So maybe I'll wait until Christmas... haha, I basically use the PC to record little things, and I tried to install Mac OS Snow Leopard so I could use Logic but of course... it was more of an experience since I have it installed but it runs at 1 per hour (obviously).
What do you recommend, I think I'll get the graphics card these days, and the rest for Christmas.
what do you think?

If you buy the graphics card now, you won't be able to use it with new equipment, because the graphics card has an AGP connection and the computer has PCIe. I vote for buying the 300€ computer now, because prices go up at Christmas, or after they release stock.

Your motherboard seems to have PCIe http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_775/P5LD2_SE/
@adriamarva:Let's not exaggerate, it's 6 or 7 years old and it works great for its age, I just want a card because I don't make good use of my asus panoramic screen, and that way I can play some games again!
I spend my money on music.
Spend it on whatever you want, but a computer over 5 years old is outdated, whether you want to upgrade or not is your choice, just know that for 300€ you can come to the present. If not, the graphics card I gave you for just over 30€ will suffice in the meantime.
Obviously that graphics card is suitable for your current equipment, if you're going to upgrade it as I said before, a 6770 would be appropriate. So it's better not to throw away 30€ if you're going to be able to use it to buy something better.

Its motherboard does seem to have PCIE http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Int…_775/P5LD2_SE/
What a mess, that's what happens when you don't check the source. That improves things a lot, any graphics card from 60-80€ gets you out of trouble more than enough.

My power supply is a Corsair 650W -
I think Raesan was referring to the website you linked with the photo of your motherboard... xD

these things happen because you don't edit the signature :nono::nono:

these things happen because we don't edit the signature :nono::nono:
No, that happens because we no longer know how to distinguish between AGP and PCIE ;D

what exact pentium d do you have? recently I installed a gtx260 (second hand and quite cheap) on a friend's computer and on his pentium d the games run moderately well with a 19" monitor. gta4 is more or less playable without demanding much from the graphics options, just to give you an idea.

well you would be lucky because for less than 60 I don't see any, and that's not cheap :nono:

A Pentium D, the first dual-core one! the screen I think is 20 or 21 panoramic asus vga
