    Graphics card for my desktop

    So my 5 month old puppy decided it would be fun to destroy my gaming laptop, well she did. Haha. Now i have to play some wow on my high school graduation desktop. I have a dell inspiron 620, i would like to know if anyone has any recommendations for a graphics card that's compatible with this desktop. my price range is 70-130 or more if necessary but i'd prefer not to. Any help would be awesome! Thanks all.

    If anyone has a model that's available at best buy, that would be even better! So i can get it quicker.

    nVidia 650ti is probably your best bet... However nothing at best buy will be worth getting for that price.

    Also, moving this to the build/upgrade subforum.

    so basically anything id want to get is over priced at best buy? is there anything worth getting from best buy?

    As far as computer parts go not really - that's why people use companies like best buy as a running joke for crappy prices and crappy service. Once in a blue moon you'll get something okay though. If you're lucky you can get them to price match an online store.

    If you have a BB gift card... that's one thing. But avoid it if you can.

    A $110 card anywhere else will run $140-160 after taxes at BB.
