I bought an XFX GeForce 9800 GTX+, 1gb memory, PCI-Express 16x Slot, recommended power supply - NonSLI: 630Watt or greater > SLI: 680Watt or greater.
I own a Dell Inspiron 530 and the power isn't enough for the card.
What I want to know is what computer out there is good for this graphic card? If you can please give a list. I'm also looking for a price range from around, $200-$800. Sorry for being so picky and specific. Thx, really need help.

Thx for the website. My dad isn't sure that the Inspiron 530 we have can handle a another unit, as in, hes saying it's small. Can a power unit work for all types of computer? because this Dell is a small tower. Thx Again
