As you all notice, kulang xa ng VC for my gaming needs and a more RAM. Pero, the RAM's not at all a problem. I need help with the video card mga Sir. Ano kaya sa tingin nyo ang dapat na video card kong kunin that would fit very well para nito. Hard core gamer, but I'm not at all VERY hungry on the graphics. Ideas/advices please? Thank you!

You have to consider things first sa gusto mong upgrade most likely prebuild computers dont use branded mother boards it means if you wanted to upgrade to much higher GHZ sa memory mo you need to check firstkung ilang GHz ang kakayanin ng mobo mo

Next is PSU most prebuilds have only 300W enough to run all the components inside if you wanted to add GPU you need to change power supply as well  ;)

Dont jump into something you need start thinking and calculate things first before you put something inside your computer this will help you prevent bottle necking your parts

Kung yung nakalagay sa specs na pinost mo yung mismong PSU na nakakabit, kakailanganin mo din magpalit ng PSU kung gusto mo ng high midrange pataas na VC. Pero kung di mo trip magpalit ng PSU at di ka naman masyadong metikuloso sa graphics - yung tipong lahat ng lalaruin mo gusto mo naka Ultra, kung ayos na sayo kahit high, pinakasafe mo na siguro pwede ikabit HD 7750. Check mo lang pag bumili ka kung yung bibilin mo kailangan ng auxiliary power kasi meron atang version na kailangan (yung mga factory overclocked siguro). Bilin mo yung normal/di kailangan ng auxiliary.
