    Graphics Card
    I want to buy some games for my laptop but when I bought my laptop (2 years ago) I didn't think of what kind of graphics card it came with. Can anyone explain how do I know which graphics cardsare better than others. When I look at some of the game requirements they say like "must have a <Insert graphics card name here>" how do I compare that to mine?

    Or can someone tell me if I can play a game that requires this:

    128mb 3D video card with shader 2.0 support. When my computer has

    Video Graphics ATI RADEON® XPRESS 200M IGP
    Video Memory 128MB DDR (dedicated)


    Thanks

    Well if you want to see what graphics card you got in..

    Go to start --> Run --> Type dxdiag --> and go to the display tab - I'm sure it will show you the type of graphics card you got in your laptop.. :D

New Graphics Card [ 6 Answers ]

I have a 9800pro. I want a new AGP graphics card with a good performance increase from this for about £100. PCI-E is out of the question so don't bother. Also the graphics on my MOBO is DDR, will other types of DDR such as DDR2 and DDR3 graphics cards work on this? The MOBO is an Abit V-10.
