I was searching for a new Nvidia, my 9800 GT died almost an year ago and I never had money to replace it, hopefully some day I will it manage to get a new one. I was looking at the GeForce GT 440 from EVGA wich is 78$ (60€ yay) and I was wondering if are there any better videocards wich I should spend money on?

I really would like to not spend too much, I don't really have much money, something between 50 - 100 $ would be perfect.

take a look at some ati cards, for same price of nvidia gts 250 i bought ati 4850 which run about 20% faster and have better graphic. Although nvidia shows better performance in psychic and better psychic.

It really depends on what types of games you like.
Always look for deals though.

If you still have your old graphic card try cooking it in a oven. It may work! I've cooked mine a week ago (8600GT DDR3) and works perfectly :P

I think you should look for right card for rest of your PC (RAM, CPU, power supply). You might waste money if you'll get card that will be slowed down (aka. won't be able to use all it's power) because your CPU isn't fast enough, or you'll get "funny errors" because your AC isn't supplying every component with enough power.

You are very right about that , i burned 2 400w power supplies because they couldn't deliver enough power.I have 4gb ram ati 4850 and amd phenom black series CPU. Last time i tried to play Alan Wake and was able to play it on 1920x1080 with all highest details without problems, but after 10 min my pc turned off, i tried again and after 10 min my second power supply died. Problem is i don't have money to buy at least 600w power supply.

You just get a real 450-500W power supply instead. They haven't to burn. If you get a 600W 20$ power supply you don't solve the problem. I suggest brands like Enermax, Seasonic, Corsair.

here you ca find brands like cooler master, codegen, chieftec, jnc, intex, zito. for branded 500W power supply i have to pay 60$. and unbranded 600W are 10-15$ and can solve problem because on other PC (same configuration just gts 250 Graphic card) i have unbranded 600W power supply and it can hold on.

Generally the power supply it's an underestimated pc component. Apparently you solve the problem, but unbranded or low cost products lack really of reliability. If your pc is old maybe doesn't make sense you pay 60$ for a power supply though.

I didn't know that, but I think that it will work just fine, I have a quad core with 4 GB ram so it shouldn't be a problem. I am going to ask to somebody tough.

Pretty sure you had it right the first time, as there is no such thing as a GTX 640 SE.

Read this for new videocards.
Also some stores are trying to clear stock of "older" GPU's, search for sales on Ati 5770/5850/5870 or Nvidia GTX460/470

Radeon FTW. Ex 8800GT user, it burned because some kind of factory overlooked thing, now happy with 5770 for half a year already.
