Radeon 8800

« on: March 02, 2011, 09:43:47 AM »

All remember this old bit of GFX goodness?

Anyway as you all know I have made a little upgrade and have my old PC in bits.
My olds have my previous PC which has a Raddy GFX Card and although I have searched I can't find out whether I can transfer their GFX card onto my old Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI NF650i SLi MB?

If I can do it, I can upgrade them from a 2.6 P3 with 2gb RAM to the E6600 Core2 + 4gb RAM. They are short of cash so any purchase is not really an option as I am presuming I will need to update the PSU.

Scratch the above question - the answer is no.

Parents do not game so what is the cheapest option? And will I need a new PSU, current one iirc powers a P4P800MB

Should be able to get a 5450 or something for about £40.

Yep, something cheap and cheerful.

No idea what the wattage is in the old PSU, so can't comment.
