What's a good video card to play games (such as Sims 2 and 3) with?
Currently I have an ATI Radeon x1200. Is that any good? To play Sims 3 I know you need at least 128 MB for your video card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
Can anyone clue me in on if mine is good enough? If not, can I upgrade? If I upgrade, what should I get? Thanks!|||The ATI Radeon X1200 is a low end graphics card not really suitable for gaming but it is playable on Sims 3. Its performance is slightly above the Intel GMAX3100 but below the Intel GMA4500. Expect to play it a low settings. Sims 2 runs fine.
Video cards on laptops cannot be upgraded as they are integrated to the motherboard. You are stuck with the graphics capabilities that come with the laptop.
The only way is to play Sims 3 on a laptop or desktop with better graphics capabilities.

What's a good video card for the money?
I just sent back a Radeon 1050 that was a piece of junk to replace it with an Invidia ge7600 card that now I'm told is defective.
What's a good video card that doesn't require an arm and a leg?|||depends i prefer nvidias so i would go for them(great cards+ support) AND i would recommend the 8600GT for only £80.
Good Luck!|||The 7600GT is a very good card so there is not much point from upgrading(to the 8600GT) unless your going for the 8800gts or gtx which really do cost an arm and leg!!
|||if u whant it for multimedia check the new ati cards like hd2600 or nvidia8600
games
atix2900xt nvidia 7900gt or gtx
high end but expensive
hd2900xt or nvidia 8800|||a gforce 8600gt will do a good job and won't empty your pockets|||The bare minimum for todays graphics intensive programs would be a NVidia based 8800GTS........

How do I change my integrated video card?
I have a acer aspire 5100 laptop and want to get a better video card but mine is integrated and I only have a pc slot type II open. Is it possible to get a better video card in here? and if so, how?|||Nope.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there is nothing you can do about the video adapter that is currently installed on the machine.
90% of laptops cannot have their video adapters upgraded.
The 10% that can are the large, desktop replacement laptops that usually run upwards of $2000us.|||Since it is a laptop your only option is to use your pc slot. However i have never seen a pcmcia vido card. The only thing I have ever seen that is close is a tv tuner card, which isn't a viseo card.|||Just buy a new laptop for your desire great video graphics.|||you will need to replace the whole motherboard if you replace the video card because its integrated to the mother.

Is this a good video card for gaming.(not a hardcore gamer)?
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100; 64MB - 251MB dynamically allocated video memory (shared)
with 2GB of Memory|||Its decent - 2 gig ram helps.. and 250mb of shared video memory is good.
Its not the best card but it should do the job of a non-hardcore gamer. Make sure those video drivers are up to date|||Shared memory graphics are never good for gaming. Hardcore? Definitely not. It depends on what kind of gaming you mean that isn't "hardcore". You could probably run most games that are more than 5 years old with not too much problem. I wouldn't expect too much from it - sorry.
Whatever memory you set aside for graphics, as you know, will take away from your system memory. So this will slow overall performance quite a bit the more you take.

Help me i need a good video card?
i want a video card that could handle playing command and conquer 3 but also cheap my slot is agp and i also need a cheap ram upgrade thank you and my computer is a gateway 816gm|||At least you need a card of 7600GT(256M), with which u can play the c&c3 for nearly 30FPS under the resolution of 1280*1024, AA open and shader detail High.
But I think ATI HD3650 AGP version card is the best choice. The problem is whether u can find the AGP version card, though it's really exist.|||Any decent agp card will run it. recommended requirements is only 32meg vram. You should be able to get something for about $40 from ebay.
