I'm noob with these, I need a new one, my computer is three years old now =[ so yeah, going to upgrade everything. 1) Someone told me any GFX card can work with any PC. (PC compatible GFX Card) 2) First of all I want to get a cheap but good card. Has to be compatible to play video games such as GW/WOW/ HL2/etc, those new games I dont' really have a limit.. I just want it as cheap as possible and good enough for my computer. I have 512 RAM probably going to get 512 more Sony Vaio PC.(Desktop computer) So yeah... anymore things you guys need to know?
Radeon X800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814131420
No clue =[ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814131420 Is a little high or is that the cheapest?
There are cheaper, but that is a decent card for a decent price. Do this, right click on your desktop, go to properties, then go to settings, take a screen shot and post it here.
well if your computer is 3 years old, it will more than likely NOT have a PCI-e slot on the motherboard, so you will have to get an AGP 8x card. try this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814121206 unlocking pipelines will make it even faster as well and it's fast to begin with. also, it is linux compatable which si always a plus.
I'd say go with this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814131420 Actually the eVGA is cheap and had pretty good reviews...
No point in a new card for a 3 year old pc. It will be bottlenecked by his cpu. So you should get a 9800pro or at best a 6600GT I wouldnt go any higher. I would recommend the 9800pro as I think the 6600gt would still be bottlenecked.
