| | If you want to go pretty cheap, but you are still looking for a decent upgrade from your stock on-board graphics card, you could buy a GeForce Graphics Card. I bought one (can't remember the model number and everything) and it was $50, and it came with 128MB memory, even though most of the newer more advanced graphics cards come with 256MB of memory. |

If you can pick up a GeForce 7600 GT or GS then that'll be the best bang for the buck. That card has 12 pipelines and is based on a fairly new architecture so you're gonna get all the shader support. My cousin has this card and it's way better than the ATI cards at the $100-$150 range.

Laptop Graphics Upgrade
(4) I know that generally you cannot upgrade a laptops graphics card! I am thinking of getting THIS
laptop and it has a good graphics card which according to Nvidia's wesite will be direct x10
compsatible but in the future I may want a new graphics card without a new laptop, is it possible
with this laptop because it has dedicated memory in the graphics card so i am not entirely sure as
for ram and hard drive i believe it can have double the ram and double the hd space I am no expert
of laptops so thats why i am asking the specs aren't hugely instructive b....
Graphics Card Aperture Size Change
(4) Hi I just got this computer last week and its running great , bar a few small probs. Today i have
noticed that my AGP Aperture size is set to 64mb My card is a nVIDIA Geforce 6200 256MB AGP I was
just wondering if it is at all possible that i can change the aperture size to 128 or 256. I just
done today a bios update ,but i still see no setting for me to be able to configure this option. I
just manage to get the agp slot running at 8x ,as it was at 4x when i got the computer. I think the
bios update fixed that ,but am still not making any progress in fixing the Ape....
Which Graphics/video Card?
The Almighty 8800GTX or the Uber Overkill 8800Ultra? (5) Just out of curiosity I want to here your opinion, if you were making a computer and there was a
choice of a 8800GTX and a 8800Ultra which one would you take. The logical answer would be the
8800ULTRA since it has higher clock speeds, better looking etc but I've heard some people say
that the 8800Ultra overheats your computer, too big, and uses too much power. Others say that the
8800GTS is much more worth the money, what do you prefer?....
Thinking Of A Preferable Hardware 4 My Pc Upgrade
which one will go? (3) Currently, I am using a Pentium 4 630 (running at 3.0GHz factory default) powered PC which I have

is clocking down to DDR 333) with 240GB (80GB x 3 ) and 4 CD/DVD drives (3x CD-RW + 1 DVD-RW). My
motherboard is being powered by an Intel 865GV Northbridge chipset (800 FSB). It is not like this

Graphics Card/monitor Issue
(3) Alright, I'll stay by telling you what Graphics Card I have, so there's not confusing. I

with the drivers.. What I didn't do!; Stupidly enough, I never plugged my monitor into the
graphics card, ha. So for about 2 months I thought I was running a GeForce, when I was actually
running an Intel Extreme Graphics card, ya, don't ask me how I didn't notice. I figured
that out today when I tryed to play fable, and it yelled at me for not having a good en....
8800 Series Graphics Cards
(1) So, what're your thoughts after seeing it in action in some form or fashion? NVIDIA has showcase
at http://www.nvidia.com/page/geforce8.html , though I'm wondering why they haven't
released any tech demos for at least the basic stuff you can do (or at least for those with Windows
Vista RC1/2). The thing that trips me out the most is the water effect (the DX10 geometry shader).
The Quantum Effects technology I'd have to see in another form or fashion. But geez, the 8800
kind of creates a whole new ball park of terms we have to know. Instead of pipeline....
Graphics Card
(4) The first graphic card, introduced in August of 1981 by IBM, was Monochrome Display Adapter (MDA).
The monitors that used these cards were typically text-only with green, amber or white text on a
black background. Color for IBM-compatible computers appeared on the scene with the 4-color
Hercules Graphics Card (HGC), followed by the 8-color Color Graphics Card (CGA) and 16-color
Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA). When IBM introduced the Video Graphics Array (VGA) in 1987, a new
graphics standard came into being. A VGA display could support up to 256 colors (out of a possi....

Macbook Graphics Down Grade
(0) some news for the mac fans There is a rumor going around on the web that the new macbook has a
graphics down grade from its old g4 brother. some of you might be thinking i am just talking crap,
but it looks like that the new macbook has its graphics capabilities somewhat intergrated with the
intel chip. this puts more processing calls on the processor and less on the graphics card causing a
lower graphics speed and performance. the old g4 did not do this, it only had the graphics card do
it seperatly. the thing with the macbook is that it is a daul core so this could hel....

Upgrade From Amd 64 To X2 Worth It?
(3) Sorry if this has already been asked but I couldn't find anything on it. I basically have a
pretty decent gaming machine which the essencials consist of my Athlon 64 3000+ (754 socket), 1 GB
(2x512) ram, and a 6800 Non-ultra. The thing is though, the AMD X2s are really looking attractive
now, probably getting the 3800+ X2 because it seems to be the most affordable right now. FRom what I
understand though is that the two cores are not actually clocked individually to the level that a
single core 3800 would be clocked. Does this mean that when playing a game (that isn&....

in offices. So Dell and HP are very likely to use this option because it is cheap and enough
