So to put it this way I have an A6-3650. woohoo best thing in the world. Yeah well I wanna Atleast get as much juice out of this thing. Probably anything will bottleneck the poor thing. Temps are fine 60c under loud w/ stock cooler. Well I just looked at it and it can support a a GPU PCIE x16. I'd probably need a new PSU. ( it's only 300w xD.. ) but Ive got the PSU part covered. Also I'd probably need a new PSU because it doesn't have any power connectors.

Honestly... This is to Atleast get me over 30fps in games. http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c03349236 Is the closet thing I could find to what I have.

So you're looking for a gpu to get you at least 30 fps in X games? And the prebuilt you linked is a similar system to what you have?

What games do you play?

Space Engineers, SpinTires. The poor thing barely gets 30fps in SpinTires at low settings. Barely 15 in space engineers at low. Nothing crazy because well the thing can't do anything crazy.

I'd recommend a 750ti or if you can a 950. They're both powerful cards that don't consume much power however the 950 requires a six pin plug and it will come with a molex to six pin adapter.

I mean there's always the 750 Ti. Dosen't need any external power or anything and in benchmarks it does pretty good for a ~120 dollar card.

Also, perhaps you could use it with your current PSU due to its very low power usage

Yeah that's what I was thinking.

See if you can find a used 2gb 750 ti for cheap.

That's my EXACT one. Would getting a 8gb kit of 1866mhz and the 750Ti be good? I'd reuse the ram in my later dream build and the 750Ti would be a backup.

How much would the faster ram benefit me?

You won't notice the difference between the ram.

Not really much of an improvement with faster RAM... So unless you don't need more I wouldn't get additional sticks. The 950 is also out, I haven't read many benchmarks on how much is it better or how much does it cost but I know it is better than the 750Ti.

Alright :). http://pcpartpicker.com/p/7npjxr According to pcpartpicker I should have about 80Watts left over.

One last time to bother you. I'm thinking of new fans. Yeah they sound like jet engines, I mean imagine a leaf blower 5ft from you.

I would consider getting Be Quiet Silent Wings 2, they're pretty expensive but they're silent and efficient, but of these two, I'd get the 90mm one.

Well these won't be "forever" the 80mm one is for heat sink, since it's 4-pin and the other one is extra both fans inside the case are loud. Not looking to make the thing silent but Atleast make it so I don't hear it in the other room or with my headset on. Also the Artic one is 22DB,,dunno why it says no answer.
