Hi,
I need to upgrade the current Graphic card Geforce 8600 GT 512MB (actually will fit this one in to another pc).

My current configuration is:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 6750@ 2.66 GHz socket 775 LGA
RAM: Kingston DDR3 Two Modules of 4 GB each total 8gb.
Motherboard: ECS G41T-M7
Monitor: AOC full HD 22".
Uses: for Photoshop and old games at moderate setting(Old means I have Call of duty 5 and it runs well with 8600GT at less resolutions.

Budget is around 3000.00 Less is better.

I need this because I am planing to shift the current graphic card to an old campaq machine.
thanks.

No idea about Gainward's after sale service in India. Get asus or Zotac. You can also try to find a used GT 210.
