Cal_da_Darth Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 @R15: What makes you want to upgrade your VC? What kind do you have? Oh, and as far as cable goes, you don't have to get that to get good speed; I have DSL and it works just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted August 16, 2002 Author Share Posted August 16, 2002 My computer is a Compaq Presario Celeron 600 mhz , integrated intel 810e chipset. i'd like to get a better framerate, my ram is 320 sdram. it runs just about everything, the ram really helped that. it has some pci slots that aren't used.

Compaqs aren't exactly the most upgradable computer around (stupid propriety parts). Also intergrated graphics can be a b.... uhh annoying to disable. No AGP slots?! You can only get crap cards. If you do have an AGP slot that I don't know about then wait for the ATI Radeon 9700 to come out so there will be a price drop on all the GeForce 4s. Since we are discussing computers, does anyone know what parts of a Dell are propriety parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal_da_Darth Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Originally posted by Grand_Admiral_Ice Since we are discussing computers, does anyone know what parts of a Dell are propriety parts? Actually, I have a dell that's only half a year old, and a lot of it is propriety (I think I know what you mean by that) I have an AGP slot, but the case is so small I couldn't fit in a high-end GeForce; I had to use my PCI slot and use the lowest Ge4 I could get. So a tower (depending on what you get with your PC) could be. Also, be careful with a laptop from dell. I have a friend that wanted to get a car adapter, but dell changed the size and shape of the slot so that one could only order the adapter from them. Basically, I've learned my lesson about buying from Dell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Ice Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Why didn't you try to get a Geforce 4 Ti4200. Granted it's not as good as the Ti4400 or Ti4600, but it is smaller. I mean 18 cm X 10.6 cm X 1.6 cm doesn't seem to big to fit in a Dell's case. At least I hope not cause I want one to replace my GF2 MX 400.

talldudeX Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 It would suck if that was true because then i couldn't return his graphics card and would have thrown away 100 dollars.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Ice Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 How come you can't return it? You had it for to long or does the store not take returns? If it's yes, then I guess you did throw away a hundred bucks on a card that's has worse performance than a Geforce 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talldudeX Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Yeah it's true. I think he only had a week to return it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal_da_Darth Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Actually, a low-end GeForce4 PCI has the same power as a high-end GeForce3 (I made sure to look into that before I bought a piece of junk video card). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
