later... I have an AMD setup though.
EDIT: Oh yeah I am using an HDMI input/output cable. Be thinking about that.
Sorry about being really late on this.
Turns out the graphics card I brought up doesn't work, because I only have one 2x3 pin from my power supply. That's going to be a pain. The one XTOTHEL might not work as well because... I dunno how many of the other connectors there are when I opened up my case to check. I'll have to open it up again and update later, although I believe there are two extra 1x4 pins. But since there are power cables that come with XTOTHEL's graphics card, is it possible to just buy those in addition to the graphics card of my choice? What details would I have to be wary of?
EDIT: No go, only one spare 4 pin connector. Need to restart the search from scratch. How's this one? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...t04Descrip $145, $125 after rebate.
And this is apparently what happens when you double the memory size but sacrifice a little bit of clocking speed: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814130652 $170, $160 after rebate.
