Sacrevy Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) Hey, I'll need a new video card for my pc, the one who I currently have is terrible, and I need a new one.If anyone has some advice , please post it.What about this one ?Price:1/ less then 60 $2/ less then 100 $I don't want to have an ultimate super-video card from hundreds of dollars, it'll need to be a cheap one.

Sacrevy Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) Never mind.It seems my CPU is the problem,Too bad I don't have the money for it the next couple of months.*sigh*http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/2235/naamloosamt.jpgEDIT: Seeing as I really would like to play DayZ, if anyone has a way to boost your FPS and/or reduce lag, please tell me.

aWhiiteeKiid Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 That's the recommended CPU. You don't need to have an i5 to be able to play it. Quad_Tube 1 Quote Link to comment

What resolution are you running the game at? Quote Link to comment

awesomeo_5000 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Depending on your MOBO you could pick up a couple of older gpus and run then in SLI. Instead of buying a new card I'm just going to add a second 9800gtx to my rig, costing me £40 from the magical land of eBay. Quote Link to comment

Sacrevy Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Alright.I don't have the money for a new pc, I do have the money for a new video card,if a video card will make it able for me to normally play at a low resolution. Quote Link to comment

The Power supply only provides power, and does not interface with the computer any other way... therefore you cannot see the power supply as a device, and there is no software that can interact with it. It's easy to spot the PSU (power supply unit) when looking inside the computer, just look for where the external power cable connects into. You'll have a make, model and output wattage marked on the unit somewhere. Edited June 30, 2012 by Mathijs1996 Quote Link to comment
Kefeus Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) No point in going SLI with that cpu.That's mainly because of your video card. My friend has a shitty CPU, like 2.2 ghz and it plays Arma II like a gem.It's not always about the GHz, it's more about the architecture.Edit. E4600 is a cpu from 2007. I would save my money if I were you. Edited June 30, 2012 by Kefeus Quote Link to comment

Sure a new GPU would help, but your computer is just so outdated that I would save my money.We don't even know if his mobo supports SLI... Edited June 30, 2012 by Kefeus Quote Link to comment
