hi, i am trying to upgrade my graphcs card for the following motherboard p4sd-vx but can not find
out what type of grapics card it supports, can any one please help?...

I'm looking into upgrading my motherboard and graphics card, but am not sure of the brands out
there or what to look for. I'm a regular gamer, so I want something that will handle the
upcoming games (Bioshock, Alan Wake, and the like). I currently have a 2.4 ghz Pentium 4, with an
ATI Radeon x800 pro (256 meg). It's playing Half-Life 2 well enough, but some of the newer games
are lagging, and it annoys me /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:"

Well, for some time i thought that ati had the lead with their cards, but suddenly nvidia seems to
have demolished ati with their sli interface and the new geforce 7800 gtx card. so the question is:
which card i the best - ati or nvidia?? I vote for nvidia....

i am a serious gamer, and i want to upgrade my computer in time for christmas. So i wanted to know
your opinion on which of the following graphics cards would be best for the job i want to do:
Sapphire Radeon X1300 256MB (PCI) Sparkle GF 6600 512MB (PCI) Gigabyte GF 6600 Turbo SLI 128MB (PCI)
Any other graphics cards within the price range of £0-£100 Also, does the memory of the card only
effect the preformance, or is there other things that matter? Thanks /biggrin.gif' border='0'

Hello all ! Someone I know is flying to Dubai and has very kindly agreed to get me any
electronic consumer goods that I want. Right now, a personal music player is at the top of my "I
want this..." list. However, I want to ask the advice of users on the forum as to what particular
model they'd suggest. The following parameters are must-haves: At least 2 GB capacity FM
tuner ability to play WMA, MP3 - a must. (Plus points if it can also play MP4 / OGG / AAC) good
battery life - 10 - 12 hours actual playback (which means a rated life of about 14 hours) I d...

I've got a 21 inch CRT monitor, a 1.80 dual core, Intel 946 motherboard, 256mb Geforce 7600GS,
five hard disks, a 500w power supply, and a dvd burner. If I want a UPS that can power the computer
for at least 20 minutes, how powerful does the UPS need to be? I need to know what I would need,
both for the computer+monitor, and then just for the computer....

I have a PC-based recording studio with a very specific problem. I am getting a sort of scratching
noise through the speakers when I move the mouse, load software or scroll web pages. It seems like
it is coming from the motherboard, but I can't tell for sure. I changed hard drives and sound
cards and it still exists. I'm using the on-board video controller, so I haven't yet
eliminated it as a suspect. Other people have described having the same problem and it was most
noticable for them when they had a laptop plugged into a PA system. They could hear the scra...

I'm thinking about upgrading my graphics card sometime soon. I currently have a 256mb nvidia
geforce 6600. The main question is buy a 7900gs or an 8800 series card I'm looking at the
gigabyte 7900gs, because i have a gigabyte motherboard i'm guessing this would be better for
compatibility. Anyways out of the 4 brands of 7900 my local store sells, the gigabyte is the most
overclocked and feature packed. I can pick this one up for $235 australian dollars. Now, the
8800 has the cheapest prices as follows for each different mb version QUOTE 256MB 860...

I'm currently using a Generic 400/450watt P4 PSU. When I upgrade some hardware components soon,
I'm thinking of getting a better quality one to make sure everything is fine (and I probably
should have gotten one ages ago), but I don't have a whole lot to spend on it. Basically what
I'm looking to find out is what the equivalent is for a better quality PSU, as iv'e heard
say a 350watt antec would beat the pants off a generic 450watter or some such. I am looking at:
350W "Antec" Basiq ATX Power Supply, ATX12V version 2.01 complaint, Dual +12V Ouput...

I have an older motherboard, and before I upgrade to a new pc, I would like to replace my old video
card. I want something that will be able to handle (to some extent) some of the newer video games -
Doom 3, etc. I am impartial to the brand, but I would like to stay with ATI or NVIDIA. I had a
GeForce 4 4800SE, and I am definately looking to upgrade from that. My budget is $100 - 150. I
have looked into the geforce 6800 gs I believe, which competes with the gt with about a -$200
price deduction on it. I don't want the best available. I just want somethin...

Graphics cards are always updating, almost seems like a new one is coming out every month. I have
the nvidia GeForce 7900GT from a recently purchased Alienware computer. Now nvidia just released a
new graphics card that kills all graphics card. The single card has a combined total of 1GB of GDDR3
RAM, my new computer JUST got 1GB of ram. Here is the very interesting article for you guys to
check out, for all the hardware junkies like me out there. Because I know a summary of it cant feed
you, you need it raw so here it is: QUOTE Nvidia reintroduced SLI two ye...

Hi, I'm looking for a video card to replace the cheap one I have. Been looking around and found
the PNY Verto GeForce FX5500 128MB AGP Card. My question is, is this PNY Verto brand the same as the

Hello all, I need to upgrade a computer to increase its performance for image processing with adobe
photoshop cs. The problem I have is because digital pro-images are quite large (12megapixel) the
computer totally slow down when opening, aplying a modification,etc.. anything you do will take a
long time. The actual computer is a AMD athlon 64 +3400 with 1Gb of RAM. Graphics card is nVidia
5200. Hardisk is SATA 7000rpm (seagate) What do you improve to achieve more performance for this
kind of work? As this computer is not for gaming, I don't know if a better g...

Well I was looking online a graphics cards recently and I had noticed something. Two different
companies had the same graphics card. This is where I got confused. Is it the same card, or is it
different because another company makes them. It has me thinking that that little difference could
be bad in the end. I know I should have asked before I bought my card, but I just remembered that I
was going to ask someone. My real question that got me to make this post is: Is the ATI Radeon
9250 and the Visiontek Radeon 9250 the same card? Did I make a mistake by buying the Vis...
