I am thinking upgrading my video card. To be honest though I know very little about the specifics of a card other than the total memory on it. If I used to for a mid to high end gaming PC what should I look for and why.

Thanks.



Answer
check out http://tomshardware.com/charts

their graphics charts are very extensive and include many of the latest games so you can get a good feel for for the card you are looking for, go to newegg.com in another tab and browse through it looking at video cards in your price range and keep going back to tomshardware to check and compare their performance. can talk all you want about this chip or that amount or speed of memory, but it comes down to real performance and benchmark results are it. as a gamer, pay close attention to the gaming benchmarks.

What is a good video card for my computer?




Bryn Smith


I would want to know on a good video card to play games on my computer.
I am a casual gamer, just like one or two MMORPGs. I don't know if that is casual though. I would want to get a card for my normal (not gaming) PC. I would like to play Guild Wars 2 on a 23" 1920x1080 PC. Could you tell me a good one? There are so many kinds and models out there.

Preferences
I don't intend to play on super ultra... just no lag on 1920x1080. I never plan to play on ultra.
I don't want to pay that much. If it is more than $200, it isn't worth it.



Answer
Belive it or not I researched this extensively 2 nite andf ordered my card.

Here is a comparison of 5 cards in a 150 - 180 price range:
