video cards puts the pictures on your screen. the more memory on a card the better the games will play but will still have other factors involved like system speed & whatever. you have 4 types of video cards slots: isa-old computers like 386, pci-486 to p4s, agp-p1 to p4s & pci/e- new p4's
Ph0BoLuS If you were going to draw a picture with one artist or the same picture with 1000 artists, which way would allow you to fill up a room of pictures faster? When a graphics card redraws over and over again, the better or faster the chip on that graphics card combined with the latest technology allows gamers to do shadows, 3-D effects, and much more at tremendous speeds allowing for the most realistic views possible. Not a great analogy but I hope you get the point.
