ok... im not sure if i am on the right newsgroup but i am going to ask
my question anyway...
well.. i am thinking of buying a new pci video card either online or
any nearest electronic stores (most likely online for cheaper prices)
because i have a built in graphic card and i dont have a video card
slot on my motherboard (AGP slot i think is what you guys call it). I
want to upgrade it because i play world of warcraft and the game isnt
smoth as its supposed to be. The frames kinda skips everytime i run
around in the game... plus if im on a major area with bunch of players
in it, it definitely skips big time.. It's still good tho... it's
playable.. ive actually been playing this game on this computer for
3..4.. months now... I'm tired of going to my friends house to play
world of warcraft for smoothier gameplay, so i decided to upgrade my
video card which hopefully solve my problem. Since i dont have a video
card slot in my motherboard... the only video card upgrade i can think
of is PCI video cards.... I am planning to buy a 256mb pci video card
(not sure of the brand yet). But are they worth buying? will it make
my world of warcraft gameplay smooth? If i do buy it, what happens to
my built in video card? will it add up the MB of the old one to the new
one?? am i gonna hav to disable the old one? ......... is there a way
to make my old graphic card faster than before???
My computer Info:
OS: Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2
Built-in graphic card: Intel(R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV graphic card (64
mb)
DDR RAM = 256mb + 512mb
Computer: HP Pavilion a305w (i know it sux)
Processor: Intel Celeron 2.70 ghz
Motherboard: ( i dont know how to check sorry )
please reply and help... need info before i buy it. thanks in advance
