    • And I wanted to play GoW and everything, so I was considering getting a new Graphics Card.

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8523458&st=graphics+card&type=product&id=1186007074939

    This SOB right here looks good. If I buy it, will it be easy to install? Because I've never bought any internal hardware or anything.

    • its a PCI card there the easiest to install.

    open your pc
    locate empty PCI bay/remove and eat old graphics card
    touch the outer casing(this DOESNT mean touch the motherboard)
    pickup your PCI card and slot it in
    close pc
    enjoy some sexy graphics

    • If you're gonna go for one then get a good one from whichever series. A geforce 7900 would outperform an 8200 =)

    My GeForce 4 Ti easily beats a friend's FX5200, though the early FX cards were infamous for being shit.

    Just get an 8800 or 8900 and you'll be set for ages. Also, in order of worst to best, GS -> GT -> GTX

    GS cards are budget ones with features removed or they're slower, GT could be considered mainstream and the GTX ones are for nerds with big wallets who just want the most powerful available.

    the 8900 is released? I thought the current highest was the GTX 8800 Ultra. Am I wrong?
