    Ive also got a gt430 at home but methinks its broken as when i plug it in i only get "Standard vga graphics adaptor" in the device manager.
    Could just be the drivers though. Havent tried yet, using my old 9800 in the meantime.
    550w cougar PSU should still be fine.
    Id obviously have to get some new ram too though as this PC runs ddr2 i think (yes its a little old)
    Best Option For light gaming on a budget:

    Pentium G2020 - R649
    4GB DDR3-1333 - R349
    ASRock H71 - R529

    R1500~ @ www.titan-ice.co.za

    Optional extra GPU: HD 7750 R1280.

    Everything else is all good.
