The min spec is a Nvidia or Ati with 64 mb . if you have an agp slot you could upgrade .
-
Thanks for the help. were could I find a product to help me out and what would I be looking for? Im not too computer savy as you can tell Im sorry to be bugging you so much.
Thanks Agin,
-
1st open up your case and look for an AGP port
(http://www.world-informatique.com/images/articles/montagepc/agp.jpg)
we can go from there is you have one of those .... There might be a card already pluged into it ... or not .
-
You should definitely up the RAM on that box also. 1gb if you can swing it.
-
16mb's of the ram is running his onboard vga that will come back when it gets disabled for a agp card.
-
Roscoroo,
I just want to say wtg on helping this guy out, you are an asset to the community.
:aok
-
I looked ant there is nouthing in that slot. What now sir??:)
-
cool as long as you have an agp slot you can go shop for an agp card
1st rule in video cards .. if it aint got a fan ... it aint worth it
2nd rule if its under 70 bucks it ussually wont work either .. (poor frame rates low gpu mhz) gpu = graphics processor unit
my baseline cards for decient gaming is
I'll start with the Ati (Radeon) type cards lowest price 1st (80 bucks est)
Powercolour 9550 256mb agp (mrs Roo's pc has one and it works great )
9600 pro or xt cards (beware of non fan models by cheap manufacturers)
any 9800 pro
x800
x1600 (this card is in the 250- 500.00+ range )
for Nvidia cards
5900 series
most of the 6xxx series
these are all direct x 9 type cards
theres tons of different cards and ive posted mostly the ones ive personally ran this game on . now remember agp cards are slowly getting left out as pci express cards are taking over , but with your cpu and a decient agp card its still a capable pc for gaming ... you may want to up the ram also in the future .
I'm shure if you do the price shopping and read reviews you can post questions here about certian models and we can say yay or nay
http://compreviews.about.com/od/tutorials/ss/DIYAGP.htm (http://compreviews.about.com/od/tutorials/ss/DIYAGP.htm)
some were theres that quick comparison website but i cant find it at the moment .
one other thing is to consider is power supply,,, some of these cards are very hungery and need a good 430+ watt ps but most will run on a 350 -400 watt .
-
thank you so much I will try to save up and get one. Since Im a security gaurd I dont make much LOL. Thanks agin. Looking forward to meeting you at the CON.:aok :D
