Solve : Would this video card work?? |
|
Answer» I'm not sure if this goes here, sorry if it doesn't. But anyway, I'm planning on getting a new desktop soon, and because I'm planning on using it mainly for gaming purposes, I want to get a new video card for it also. This is the desktop and video card: PCI-E x16 slot wasn't available, so yeah. What do you want it for?Doesn't the video card need a PCI-E x16 slot? o_o. It's part of the System Requirements.

My mind was elsewhere.. heh Okay, I know that I'm bumping up a old thread and all, but after days of looking around, I started to WONDER, WOULD the graphics card be able to be inserted and properly run with the desktop ( With it not having an AVAILABLE PCI-E x16 slot? ) -EDIT- I would also like it know if the video card and the desktop together would really be good enough to run games such as Call of Duty, Crysis, or Huxley on it's highest detail. And, off topic I guess, I'd like to see if anybody could recommend me a decent desktop to run those games if this desktop doesn't meet my expectations. -EDIT2- One more thing while I'm at it. After a bit more surfing, I found that VisionTek - ATI Radeon HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express Graphics Card is also a good graphics card for gaming. It's $10 more than the Nvidia 9800, and some people say it's better, so, I'd like to take opinions on this. VisionTek - ATI Radeon HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express Graphics Card : Video Memory : 1GB GDDR5 Interface Slot Type : PCI Express x16 Type of Processor : ATI RADEON HD 4870 Number of Processors : 1 System Requirements : 1GB RAM; available PCI Express x16 slot; 500W or greater power supply; CD-ROM drive I'm not too sure about the desktop's watt/power supply amount, it's worrying me a bit, may someone who knows please help me on this? |
