i would download the latest drivers for your new card and leave it on the desktop or somewhere you can find easily. uninstall the old drivers. shutdown. replace video card. start up computer and install new drivers. restart.So I made the purchase! $143.99 was my final purchase + I got a copy of assassins creed 3 + I have 20 dollars mail in rebate card so the actual cost ends up being...
123.99 with a free copy of assasins creed 3
Now, I have some question in regards to installing a new video card to a system. Now my computer is still running smoothly, and I would like to avoid having to reinstalling the operating system.
So, is replacing the video card as simple as unplugging my computer, taking out the video card, putting in the new one, starting the computer, installing the video card drivers? OR do I have to uninstall previous video card drivers, then remove the video card, and continue with the rest of the process?
there will be absolutely no need to reinstall the os.
samsung makes great monitors. typically, samsung makes dell monitors.Something else I am finding out with your recommendations in regards to computer monitors are that those brands are much more expensive. Like, I look at a acer monitor with 23 " and under 5ms and good contrast ratio on special right now, and compare is to an asus, dell, or samsung and the price is almost double for the other ones. Do these brands offer much better warranties or what sets these brands apart from the rest?
the policy for replacing monitors from bad pixels will probably be laid out on the website that you are buying from and the policies vary a lot from company to company. its something to take into consideration, but generally better companies have policies that are more in your favor to start with.I know with a previous monitor with acer they had a policy where if you had only a single partially dead pixel on your monitor that you could not replace/return your monitor or something. Rules like this are also things I think separate better companies from the worse. But are there more policies like this that apply with your recommendations as well or?
