Is the Nvidia 9800 GTX+ compatible with my computer? I can't really tell. If not are there any other graphics cards that can do 1280x1024 resolution very well.

does that mobo have a PCI-E 2.0? and whats your PSU watt's

[rck shx pike]

The motherboard box says PCI Express x16 and PSU is 450W.

[BlackFox898]

hmm, well X16 and 2.0 are pretty much the same, should work, the specifications say it would need a 450w psu minimum so i think your in the clear. good luck!

What would be the best resolution for the 9800 gtx+? I read somewhere that 22 inch would be the best resolution for it.

[Mousetrap]

22 inch isn't a resolution.
On my 22 inch monitor, with my ATi 4870 video card (a little better than the 9800gtx+), I play silkroad at resolution 1280x1024.
It's more personal preference though, a higher or lower resolution may look better to you. I play battle field 2142 at 1600x1200.
450w power supply isn't very powerful - It will probably run that card.. but if you have the money you should go for 700+.

my 22" monitors native resolution is 1680x1050 (16:10), in the nVidia control panel there should be a section where it says your screen native res. and mousetrap, i think 700watt is a little too high, nice to have but better rails are more important then watts, srsly my friend run vista 64bit, 9600GSOx2 in SLI, 8gb ram, etc rich kid stuff >.> on a 650w. but yeah i guess you might wanna look into a better PSU.

Would a 550W or 600W power supply be good enough for the 9800 GTX+?

And I said 22" as resolution because I couldn't remember the native resolution of a 22" screen.

[BlackFox898]

yeah, around 600W+ would be good i think.
