hey guys im looking into buying a new video card for my computer, and i need some opinions on what kind i should get. unfortunately i have only a PCI slot not an agp or PCI-e.
 right now i currently have a ATI Radeon 9250 (256 mb) card. and it works ok but im hopeing there is another card out there that could possible be better than what i got or should i stay with the card i have now?

the reason i suggest a prebuilt computer is because, he is managing to use a pci video card system till this day. Meaning performance is not really a huge factor.
The only time i would build a computer is if i want a gaming/ over clocking machines. For basic websurfer/word processor, its hard to build a computer the same price as the prebuilt ones. You can even upgrade the videocard+ memory. So there is no real disadvantage to prebuilt. For the average websurfer, prebuilt system are the way to go.. you get a warrenty and all the software with the computer. |
