    Yes, it a OEM only value card. The lowest of the low. It won't play STO.

    Here's a list of GPU. You need to make sure your PSU can support them. If not we will need to also buy one.

    Graphic Gaming cards:
    Entry level:
    ATI HD 4650 and 4670 cards only needs a 400 W PSU.
    Nvidia Geforce GT 240 needs a 350 W PSU
    Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT needs a 400 W PSU.
    All four of these cards usually do not need a 6 pin PCIE cable. Always check the box for system requirements.
    STO Gaming level med. Price ranges on these cards are under $100.00. The ATI's usually a better choice here on a price/performance.

    Mid Level:
    ATI HD 4850,4890, 5750, 5770 and the Nvidia 9800 GT, 9800 GTX, GTS 250 needs a 450 to 500 W PSU with one 6 pin PCIE cable. Always check the box for system requirements.
    STO Gaming level High. Price Range: $100-230.00.

    High End:
    ATI HD 5850, 5870, 5970. Nvidia GTX 260, 275, 295 needs a 550 to 750 W PSU with two 6 pin or 1 6pin and 1 8 pin PCIE cables. Always check the box for system requirements.
    STO Gaming level Very High. Price Range: $250.00-600.00.

    You're OK. Should play STO Med. You might want to get a better GPU. Try the game first see if you like the way it plays.

    Run the STO Test.

    You have to remember that WoW is a 2003 client and STO is a 2009 client (even though released in 2010). 7 years makes a huge difference.

    But honestly, your PC should be fine. I'd overclock that PC to get so much more out of it (with an aftermarket cooler too).

    EDIT: Oops, had this sitting up while people on GSC were talking to me and didn't hit submit until now. :)

    The 9500 GT is what holding you back
    Low setting. Try the game first.

    No, nozzle, HAVE a Mac because of personal choice and WANT to play one paritcular game on a computer he/I already have and don't want to shell out hundreds of dollars, hours of time and the hassles of hundreds of thousands of viruses just to buy another OS just to play one particular game.

    Get it?

    You quoted someone from page 108 on this thread and then tried to respond to stir up flames from more than 30 pages ago?

    I can only /facepalm that.
