Q u o t e:
I don't know much about the tech side of the pc so I'm hoping someone can give me some advice. Here is what I know of my system right now...

AMD Phenom 8550 Triple Core Processor 2.20 GHz ( I have not nor do I know how to "overclock" this)
4.00 GB RAM
HP Pavilion model number is a6602f

I know the current GeForce card installed (GeForce 6150SE nForce 430) is unsuitable for D3 (only 128MB on board). Can someone tell me if the following card will be able to run D3 on the highest settings and if it will even be compatible with my system (or how I might be able to tell)..

EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) FPB 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Thanks in advance and please excuse my tech ignorance!



Just two things, you have to check to make sure the gpu will fit into the case and you have to make sure your power supply has at least the recommended wattage with proper connectors (I assume 2 6 pin?).
