Get lost you spammer

Your 500W PSU would be ample for a 4970 or GTS 250.

Vantec is really an excellent choice if you're looking at a new PSU.

Got the 600W Vantec ION2 to go with my new HD 4890 So far so good...

Why are GTS250 and 9800GT both included?

They're the same card

Re-branding - When your new shit isn't, well, new.

Ok now, Tincan, the all important question...

If you're running an Intel E7400 processor ... which GPU would you go for?

GTS250 or HD4890 ?

4890 easily destroys a 250.

No doubt, but i think he was just worried that the CPU might be the bottleneck in performance if choosing the higher end card

Well it all depends if u want a noise pc or not, i can say for sure that the 4890 sounds like there is a vacuum cleaner in your room. Not what i would go for when it comes to watching movies/gaming.

lol, my old PC was a real vacuum cleaner The 4890 in my new rig is quite silent in comparison

I say people go for Radeon cards, they are cheaper and they provide you enough power for all your games. Go for HD4830 and up, nothing below the HD4830 and you will see the results.
