Asus EN6200LE 64MB Turbocache supporting 256MB DDR DVI PCI-E Graphics Card its gpu is a NVIDIA GeForce 6200LE TurboCache supporting 256MB i was wondering if this will play fear and command and conquer 3 thanks alot guys
you wont be able to play with that card. look at this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130062 this is about the cheapest you should go if you want to play games. i have this card and it wokrs very nice
FEAR on my 7600 GT at High Settings is minimum over 80 fps for me so a 7600 GT is good enough for you. Although if you want to be playing more modern games you might want a newer graphics card. The 6200 LE you mentioned is nothing, it's crap, don't even think about it.
kk thanks, how about this one bit cheaper but i dont want to spend that much, just bought 360 and im waiting to pay for my psp slim on preorder Innovision 3D Geforce 7200GS 128MB DDR2 DVI PCI-E Graphics Card thanks for your help guys @ddp sorry i put it in the wrong forum
Could you give us more specifications about your computer? Then we can choose out a nice VGA card which fits with your other hardware. Cuz if you install a 8800GTS combined with a P4 3Ghz, the CPU can't keep up with the VGA and you will lose performance of the VGA-card. If you got a specification similliar to this: P4 3Ghz 1GB DDR 400Mhz PCI-E compatible mainboard Then a 8500GT should be a nice upgrade. It doesn't cost that much, and you got DirectX 10 and you are able to run the newest games nice and smooth at everything at medium/high including C&C 3 and F.E.A.R.
i havent got it yet but building one... mobo MSI PT890 Neo-V Socket 775 FSB1066 8 channel audio PCI-E ATX Intel Celeron D 336 (2.8Ghz) also problem is i cant find the f***ing psu for it... im crap when it comes to building one as its my first time and no experiance i have a budget of £60 until i start the sixth form then i get paid for stating on at school should be £30 a week
A 400 Watt PSU should be enough. But never take a Celeron D proc. They suck hard. I suggest buy a good computer now for the upcomming OS's, games and applications. So you dont need to buy a new computer withing a year. I suggest: Intel E6320 processor 1GB DRR2 667MHz memory Gigabyte G33-DS3 motherboard Samsung 250GB S-ATA 2 HDD Antec Basiq 350/400Watt PSU 8500GT 256MB DX10 VGA card With this computer you should only update your VGA card after one and a half year. Cuz then it'll be a lil bit slow for the games comming out next year. And the rest of hardware should keep it up for two/two and a half years.
i just want one that i can play fear and cnc3 and all other classics... ill be working for MT techgate in two years so ill have a bit more cash then... i just want a decentish gaming pc... enough for a year or two then i can buy another... i dont want to be spending a lot i already got a dell dimension 3100 no pci express slots just pci express x1 and i dont know any cards that i could use on it
Consider the 7600 GT and don't get the 8500 GT. That card is a piece of crap, trust me I had one. With the 8500 GT you are looking at LESS than half the power of a 7600 GT for about the same price.
Celeron D = a steaming pile of crap if your tight on cash definitely go for the AMD athlon 64 X2s. They are BETTER than Pentim D And a lot better than celeron D.
if you are looking to build a cheap computer you should go with amd. celeron d sucks. amd athalonx2 4000 $65 http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16819103774 biostar tforce 550 $80 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138026 thermal take 430watt ps $40 http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16817153023 evga 7600gt $80 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130062 gskill 2gb ram $80 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231098 this is a cheap setup and it will work well. i use most of theses parts and you will be able to play fear with this.
My lil bro also has a 8500GT, and it runs like edited by ddp. Maybe it runs bad in combination with your hardware.
No, I think my hardware is fine. What games does your brother play? Maybe you can install fraps and tell us what kind of FPS is he getting on them and at what resolutions and quality settings? Best Regards, Abuzar.
CPU: E6600 Mobo: Gigabyte G33-DS4 Mem: 2GB OCZ Gold DRR2 800Mhz VGA: Gigabyte 8500GT 256MB (Next week it'll be replaced for a 8800GTX) HDD: 2x WD Raptop 36GB 10.000RPM in Raid 0 configuration He often plays BF2 on a resolution of 1650x1050 with a contstant framerate around 40 ~ 45. So that is enough to make the game play smoothly. And when he gets his new VGA card, it'll be around 100 He also plays Colin McGay Dirty (Colin McRae DiRT) and that runs at 1280x1024 everyhing at high with AAx4 and AFx8 with a framerate around 35 ~ 40. So still enough to let the game run smootly. Most new games are running smooth. Altough I think Crysis and Bioshock won't run that smooth. Thats why he is switching to a 8800GTX so he can enjoy those games @ max graphics force.
No offense but I think he is lying to you about most new games running smoothly. Check it out at toms hardware. http://www23.tomshardware.com/graphics_2007.html?modelx=33&model1=856&model2=706&chart=276
Thats a chart for BF2142 edited by ddp. That game has much more advanced graphics details. And ofcourse the VGA card of my bro is OC'ed real hard combined with a water cooled system. So you can OC it pretty much. And it runs like a edited by ddp now.
I know it is a chart for BF2142, which happens to be a modern game. Maybe you should read your own posts?
