Hi, welcome to HWF You could go cheaper, look for a 256MB 7300, 512MB for a card like that is just pathetic, its a marketing gimic. What Ram you getting for this and how much? Vista uses around 300-400mb of ram or something like 35% of 1GB on bootup. About the PSU, i would reccommend you got for a High Quality 500W PSU and not a cheap PSU, even thought you system is not the most power hungy thing, a Good PSU is always a must, a decent 350W psu would proberbly hold better than a crappy cheap 500W PSU. I would reccommend a PSU from Hiper, Enermax, Antec, Seasonic, Tagen. There are allot of other good brands out there too, i have a Hiper Type-R 580W, very good PSU, runs everything i throw at it, the non modular version of the Hiper Type-R 580w (i think its the Type-M) would be a good buy. Hiper HPU-4M580 Type R 580W ATX2.2 PSU - Black
what are you going o use it for? As willz said, vista is eating at the ram so youll need at least a gig Yes all that is compatible And again as willz said it would be a much better idea to get a better GPU with less ram. The company that wants to sell you that card slaps on 512mb ram and expects you to be impressed, but you wont be
