Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Ok, ill try.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

haha yea.
Its downloading now, got a yahoo one.
Thanks crazy arms.

-Edit
I dont even think that download is a proper driver anyway.
Its just some Configuration utility for another type of video card.

What would be really cool if it was possible to download a video card, and i dont mean just a driver, i mean, a whole video card on my hard drive. I wonder why no ones made them yet. Would make gaming a hell of a lot easier.

If by some technological miracle they did do that the ones in the shops that you fit in your PC would be 10 if not 20x more powerful so wouldnt be much point, may aswel buy one.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Aw =( Im just afraid it wont be compatible.
But i have put in graphics cards before, ones that just fit in those slots...
How would a graphics card not be compatible?

What i thinks funny is a graphics card is about 30+ pounds.
And fable for xbox is about 20 pounds.

I may aswell just get it for xbox again, only reason i bought it for pc was becuase i wanted to download some mods for it. Plus you can make custom tatoos.

Probably cheapest way as Fable for xbox is really cheap these days. My GFX card cost about £370 when i got it so £30 aint THAT much lol

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Yea, suppose.
I think ill just "shut up and get on" with it.
No real need to complain, just becuase the floor terrain is white. Its still fable.

So ill just ignore it.

Another slight problem is it lags, like when alot of enemies fighting, its jump.
Is this my hard drive or anything?

And how could i improve it?

GFX card and RAM memory are main causes in lag. PC cant take to may frames per second with low spec GFX and low memory.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Ah, RAM on amazon.co.uk is quite cheap.
I think ill buy a 512MB ram, and add that one in with my existing.
That should improve gameplay a bit, i guess.

Got to be careful with RAM types, certain types dont go well together. RAM improves gameplay and speed ALOT more then you might expect. I recently upgraded from 512Mb to 2 GIG and noticed a HUGE difference.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Jesus, lol.
I never even knew they sold GB rams, what did you do, sneak into IBM HQ.

I was planning on buying this;
How do i know if it doesnt go well with my existing one?

Standard RAM these days is 512Mb, recommended for most high spec games these days in 1 GIG so...

I dont really know about compatibility that much but i bought two 1 GIG sticks of same brand and type so i knew they would go together. The 512Mb that was already in my computer is on my Motherboard (that i also replaced) in a box so it can go into another computer.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Yea, my friend kinda said it doesnt matter.
As long as i dont buy a completly differant sized one as my existing one.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Then do what ever but upgrading RAM and GFX is a must if you want games to run well on your pc because with that Intergrated GFX you are wasting a good processor and having standard RAM will help your cause no end.

You know its really hard to tell how much things are when you two talk, cause i live in the US

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

lol, theres not really much differance between dollar and pound. Well, its only like a couple of singles, but not much.

Overall, RAM and graphics cards are quite expensive, seeing as all they do is improve your general computer.

But at the end of the day, they improve your gaming quality like Drakan said, allowing you to play alot more games, so thats what it all comes down to. If your willing to pay extra money to play extra games.

I guess overall, PC is the best games console, as you can customize it so much.

My computer sucks! Never buy a dell! Ever! I paid like $700 for it and in less than 2 months it was worth $150

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

It depends what your using it for.

If your buying them to make a profit then its bad.
If its a home PC, if it runs then its fine, no need to worry about value.

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

its a home pc, but i use it to play games, and internet, but the first day i plug in the ethernet cable BAM i got three viruses, and its been crappy ever since.

 

[Fuzi0n]

Re: My graphics card sucks =(

Well thats viruses.
You shouldnt blame the PC itself, its probably really good.
Just infected.
