Author Topic: Recommend me a video card :3  (Read 779 times)

I've been playing games with my new computer and it works fine, although a bit laggy. But now skyrim is out I want to play it really bad without any lag on not-too-high settings or just really high settings or just not if that's too much to ask. The video card I have now is an ATI Radeon HD 5450 1gb. Apparently it's really stuffty according to most people, but whatever when I bought it all I was looking at was the RAM and the processor :3 (intel core i7-870 @ 2.97Ghz :D)

Anyway, could you kind people of this forum give me advice on what video card to buy? Preferably under 120 euro (about 160$), and shippable to eurape.

Also, is 4GB ram enough for a Win7 computer? Win7 limits me to 3gb, and I have min. 33% usage at all times :/

Computer megathread, goddamnit. That's what it's there for. No good if nobody uses it.

Anyway, that's heaps for now. Keep an upgrade to 8GB in mind for the future.
And also install a 64-bit OS, so you're not wasting 1GB of RAM.

I'll recommend you a GPU soon.
