hello there i have a dell dimension 3000 and WANT to update my VIDEO card for smoother game play.  any suggestions???Do you MEAN update,  or get another video card. If the former, go to the Dell web site, find your model and download the latest drivers.

If the latter, check out Newegg for an appropriate price and performance PCI card. I don't believe that model has an AGP slot, only PCI. So it is not a gaming machine, BUT you mayneed to get acceptable graphics if you are not running Doom 5 or other cutting edge games.

Please keep in mind it only has a 250 watt power supply. If you have 2 hard drives and 2 optical drives you may not have enough horsepower.

THANKS that helps alot !!!!So how many other drives are there?sorry mate i wouldn'y have a bloody clue, how should i find out  I mean can you see two CDROM type drives looking at you? Is there only one hard drive in the machine?Yeah only one cd drive and yeah only one hard drive.
 thanks for the link to dell it's helping immensely Quote
