hi guys! i just got a new computer and i'm very excited about it. but i was wondering if my new computer can play latest 3d games or not. cause it doesn't say 3d graphic card or anything like that. maybe graphic cards and video cards are the same thing?? i'm not a computer guy so i have no idea if this is a good computer or not. my bro just bought it for me. here are the info: Base Intel Pentium 4 Processor 640 w/HT Technology (3.2GHz,800FSB) Memory FREE Upgrade to 1GB 533MHz Memory from 512MB Keyboard Dell USB Enhanced Multimedia Keyboard Monitor 19 inch Ultrasharp™ 1907FP Digital Flat Panel Video Card 256MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X600 SE HyperMemory Hard Drive 250GB Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache™ Floppy Drive 3.5 in Floppy Drive Operating System Genuine Windows?XP Media Center Edition (English) Mouse Dell Optical USB Mouse Network Card Integrated Intel?PRO 10/100 Ethernet Modem 56K PCI Data Fax Modem Adobe Adobe?Acrobat?Reader 6.0 CD ROM/DVD ROM Dual Drives: 16x DVD-ROM Drive + 16x DVD+/-RW w/dbl layer write capability DV16DVR Sound Integrated Audio with Dolby Digital 7.1 capability Speakers Dell A525 30 Watt 2.1 Stereo Speakers with Subwoofer Productivity Software Microsoft Works Suite 2005 - Includes MICROSOFT WORD plus much more!

really?? that's great!!! but are 3d graphic card/graphic card the same thing? or video card? and does that mean that the computer can run fast enough for the games/video/program to run smoothly? and is this a good computer?? thanks again for the quick reply ^^
umm.. i'm not sure.. are u talking about this? Memory 1GB 533MHz ?? not sure if it's RAM, actually i don't even know what RAM is. so do i have a decent graphic card/computer for gaming?
yea. why do u ask? it's for my b-day. can anybody please tell me if it's a good computer or not? cause i really don't know what the stuff above mean. the only thing i know is that is has 250gb hard drive. thanks again
hey if your not happy with that old thing i'll swap it for my p4 1.5 - it has a geforce 2 mx. with, wait for it, 64mb!! woooo only joking, your pc is a real douzie. should be usable for years to come with the spec u have! i have this porsche 997, do u think it will be okay to race my mates lada in it?
lol sounds like a fast pc m8 should be no problems with all the latest games but for on line playing you best get broadband
