Oromis I've been reading reviews on that card. Some negative. Can you play l4d2 on high settings?

My 9400 GT can, except shader settings. Trust me, this 9400 GT has been good to me.

Yeah, I can, but check your power supply. If you have a really small power supply, it's likely you will get a few errors.

Yeah you want above 500w or your video card will combust spontaniously.

No problems. Only issue it had was overheating but that was my fault since it was covered in dust when I opened my pc. Removing the dust made it A-Ok.

Should be little scribbles on your power supply called letters. And those letters together are words.

He doesn't have to open up his computer, why would he do that?

If you have specs on your computer, like mine has a sticker on the side, it might say there. If not, google the model of your computer followed by power supply. Mine has 220w and runs the card fine.
