| 72553 | 2002-08-20 10:58:00 | some early vid cards had sockets so you could add ram. today i doubt anyone does it now. all good video cards have DDR ram on them. different brands/models have different speed ram as well as clock speed. a good thing to check before handing over the $$. exspcially with ati radeons. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 72554 | 2002-08-21 02:06:00 | A 32 meg graphics card ddr ram is fine for most people, you only need more if you intend to play at higher resolutions than 1080 x 768 which isnt recommended unless you have a 19 " monitor and a really good modern card ie expensive i have a spare Geforce 256 ddr ram left over from my last upgrade if any wants it for $180 runs almost as quickly as my Geforce 3 85 fps as opposed to 120 fps in unreal tournament | kiwibeat (304) | ||

| 72556 | 2002-08-21 03:21:00 | HAH! Beat this... still playing on my old 15" VDU with GeForce2MX (32MB RAM) at 1024x768 playing CFS2, Ghost Recon and Americas Army. Lots of carrots in diet required. | nzStan (440) | ||
| 72557 | 2002-08-21 06:04:00 | Well, if you wanna avoid those tales, buy a nice big heatsink and fan for it, The things you can get cost upto $80, but they'll keep anything nice and kool, even after those long nights of fragging!! Chilling_Silence |
