Perry.....Whats your Budget? Like star recommends i would get a decent Power supply you can pick one up for a round 60 and up. I paid around 100 for my Corsair 750watt and Im still amazed at the 4850 preformance for a 100 dollar price so i picked up two a while back ago.
Newegg Prices
9800GTX 512mb runs about $134.99 $119.99 with Rebate
4850 1gb runs about $99.99 $84.99 with Rebate


Here are two Charts to give you idea of FPS and Power consumption

Ok you don't have a card. You have alittle chip built on the motherboard. when u buy a real graphics card u put it in. Then go into the BIOS and tell it to use the card instead of the onboard chip by changing a simple setting.

Sandy bridge review
http://www.anandtech.com/show/3871/t...-wins-in-a-row
the i5 2600 is impressive, but dammit intel just wants to confuse the fuck out of people with its naming scheme and now the i serese is spread out on 4 sockets, 1155, 1156, 1366, 2011... Fuck

Regardless of the names what you can know is that if your on Sandy bridge there will be no overclocking.
