Ok, i need someone to answer this for me. I'm getting the 9200se(APG) and when i do get this, do i plig it into one of the PCI slots when i go to install it? The brown slot i have, my manual says its a CNR slot. Does this mean i will need a PCI graphics card instead of the APG?
ddp, Will you pm me? This kinda confuses me. I want to show you the slots inside my pc. I'm just triing to get this straight because i may have gotten the wrong kind of card that my pc needs.
ffs just tkae a picture of your motherboard with a webcam and post it here , well tell you the rest....
first of all i am into this upgrading stuff dish out a geforce fx 5500 agp 8x for about $100 and dont get the pentium 4's get the AMD 64 bit 3000+ processor with a NSI motherboard with a nforce 3 or 4 chipset and a 450 watt power supply thats all you need to get a almost state of the art system that you wont have to replace for about 3 or 4 years how do i know this because fuc**** Intel doesnt or cant make a working version of the 64 bit processor except maybe the server ones there u go intel officially sucks go and check out the benchmarks of the pentium 4 3.8 or the 4.0 GHZ EE processors vesrus the amd 64 bit processors youll know what i mean l8r folks
no offense but Radeons are not the top of the line and yes you can get it for 100 at microcenter, last time i checked
Ha, Ati kick nvidias ass, check out the benchmarks... Ati's best: the 850x against the 6800 Ultra... Ati is cheaper and faster...
Not even close... I used to have a Geforce 5950 Fx...My bro has a 9800 Pro... you should have seen the difference... plus the Geforce 5950 Fx is better than the 5500 FX to start off with.
that is why i said "about par" not "exactly the same". each of us prefer one tpye over another type same as cpus. i preferred cyrix than amd til now & i am using p4 2.4c celeron with nvidia gforce2 400mx-64. but i'm not into gaming yet
even saying "about par" is stil way to harsh on the radeon....it has 16 pixel pipelines , whereas the nvidia has 8 0r 12, it has almost double the memory core speed, and roughly 70% better core speed also, but if you dont play games of course you wouldnt be able to tell the difference, my server box has a Rage 6 16mb intergrated card and still performs well at basic server routines etc...
Hi there, Plz excuse me for my ignorance here but here goes... I have a Dell 2.4 Ghz with 512 of Ram and it says that I have an Integrated Graphics Device running at 96Mb (I think). My quesion is ... do I have enough to run Doom 3 without too much problems and if not is it possible to upgrade this video? Even though it is intergrated within the motherboard (I think?) Thanks so much in advance.
Well doodlez integrated graphic cards take a chunk out of your RAM meaning if you have for example 512 MB you have less now because you have an integrated graphics card And most of all from my experience with integrated graphic cards, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, ahhh hell they suck. So yeah get either a GeForce FX 5950 AGP 8X, it'll cost you though or one of the newest ones form the 6000 series Go to www.nvidia.com to check em out Or like Best Buy or Micro Center
Thanx for the quick reply ... I had a feeling the intergrated card wasn't as happy happy as they lead me to believe. Does this mean that it is possible to upgrade the video card within my machine even though the card is intergrated within the mother board? (I was told that I couldn't but I didn't really believe him) Thanks again and I swear I'm getting less stupid with each reply!
