I need your help computer wizards, please!!

[Crack]

Hello, I recently have bought a new computer. In my personal opinion I think its a pretty good one as well, however, my video card is very very poor...

"Intel Graphics Media Accelerator" is what I have right now. But my Warcraft 3 is running very slow. Even my old computer was better....


I got:
- Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4500 @2.20 Ghz
-1.99 GB RAM
-Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family

These specs more then enough to run Warcraft 3 smoothly, I am positive that my problem is the Video card.

What are some good ones? Please help me out. I really dont wanna waste on something bad.


Thank you so much! Merry Christmas!!

I don't think he means WoW, he said Warcraft 3 which is much less demanding then WoW.

Well if you have enough get an 8800GT 512mb card. I'm hearing a lot of great things about that card. But if Warcraft 3 is the only thing you plan on playing there's a few graphics cards that are very cheap and will run WC3 quite smoothly.

An 8800GT... to run Warcraft 3? You gotta stop sniffing the glue...

A 7600GT would do that fine, or even a less powerful card.

Lol I know but he may want to get one now in case he wants to play other games?

Hang on, i think we need more info on his computer before we start telling him what card.

 

[veg1992]

ok.. Warcraft 3 runs well on my system, and mine is way crappier than urs, I'm guessing Integrated Graphics? look into buying a 7300gt or an 7100 series card, because you don't really need the power of an 8800gt, guys stop quick recommending 8800gt if he has a low budget or is never gonna need ti

Yeah a decent low end card would be good. Like an 8500gt or 7300gt and will also help when playing dvd's, videos etc.
