Thanks M8... but won't you need to know what type of card plug in I have first? Where can I find that? It says something about a PCI bus 1 or something. Cheers! Leto RE: good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Copper - 08-01-2007 you gotta open the case and use that 2nd link to determine the card type by looking at the slot it is in or the card itself RE: good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - raz_atoth - 08-01-2007 http://www.si87.com/Products/Videocards/agpvspci/ RE:��good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Copper - 08-01-2007 raz_atoth Wrote:http://www.si87.com/Products/Videocards/agpvspci/ All helpful... I only have 2 clickies a day though, so Dev and Bootie will get there's today, and you'll have to wait until tomorrow to get yours Raz... unless you want to bump me up to administrator status and give me God like powers of clickiness... (I swear, I would not abuse them!) ; ) Cheers! Leto RE: good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Copper - 08-01-2007 The best slot to use is a PCiE slot, if you have one, then AGP, then lastly PCi (which is a good reason to buy new PC if this is all you have, so not waste any money on the old beast) RE: good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Fullhouse - 08-01-2007 RedDevil Wrote:The best slot to use is a PCiE slot, if you have one, then AGP, then lastly PCi (which is a good reason to buy new PC if this is all you have, so not waste any money on the old beast) If you dont have an AGP slot you wont have a computer that can run this game. AGP slots have been standard since 2000. I mean I dont think anyone will have PCI. So its between AGP and the newer PCiE. RE:�� good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Copper - 08-01-2007 RE: good old slagging match going on at battlrfront - Copper - 08-01-2007 Yep I checked your techy specs, Expansion Bus Bus types PCI and AGP Bus speed PCI: 33 MHz; AGP: 66 MHz AGP connector one AGP connector size 172 pins AGP connector data width (maximum) 32 bits AGP bus protocols 4x/2x modes at 1.5 V PCI connectors four PCI connector size 120 pins PCI connector data width (maximum) 32 bits It has an AGP 4x slot which is an older 1.5v type system. You're going to be very limited in the video card choices unfortunately, as most are AGP 8x cards these days. Also any card you find to work, will be a very low end unit and not worth investing in, to be all honest with you. :( AGP card info link Based on that info, the spare Fx5200 card I have wouldn't even work as there would be voltage issues. It's time to cut back on soda and chips M8 and get a new Dell! Check out the XPS-410 or 710 models.. they kick ass.. |
