    What kind of DDR3 graphics card should I have?

    try get a ddr5 graphics card. a gts 450 will work a charm and won't require a PSU upgrade. also you will be able to play crysis 2 on very high on a 22'' monitor 1600x1050. like i've mentioned in your other thread you don't need to match your graphics memory to your system ram so don't limit...

    Can't get a certain resolution to work?

    you really don't want to play games on resolution lower than 1024x768 even on 18'' screen instead try lowering the game settings to medium lets say or leave them on high but disable any AA that should improve your frame rate. updating drivers also helps. i'm not sure how often ATi release...

    Should i buy this gaming computer? Cheap and good? Thanks for any help!

    like patonb says beware of pirated software. from my personal point of view it sounds too cheep to have original MSO2010 pro. for that price. i live in africa at the moment and here the price of microsoft office 2010 is as much as a brand new entry level pc. so i would presume that the office is...

    Buying a new graphics card

    to make everything easy for yourself and to spare the unnecessary return trip to your local pc shop just buy yourself a 500w power supply with whichever mid-ranged gpu card you find most attractive and affordable. as long as the card uses only one 6pin external power connector a 500w psu will be...

    Upgrading gramp's PC

    you could also try and disable all (or most at least) startup processes that run in the background. i've noticed that 2gb of ram is not really that much these days even when it comes to just using the pc/laptop for Internet browsing.

    Can my pc run Crysis?

    your graphics card does not have to match your system memory (RAM). i am still using ddr2 on my machine and both the ddr3 card (the 430) and now the gts450 work absolutely fine. anyways i don't think ddr5 system RAM has been released yet. besides every gpu card these days comes with ddr5. its up...

    Can my pc run Crysis?

    you should probably go for the GTS450 i bought it a week ago and now i'm playing on 1600x1080 with settings on Hardcore and V-sinc enabled. fraps never drops below 30fps. its a budget card with great performance. before i had the MSI GT430 which was surprisingly powerful and i guess you could...
