Hello, I was wondering if you play Gmod, and if you do, could you please tell me what kind of Graphics card I should get.

I could play it fine with my 6150SE
However my 8400 makes it look lovey

Can you explain that any better. Sorry I know almost nothing about graphics cards.

Go to the start menu on your computer, and go to run. Type in dxdiag and hit ok. Go to the display tab and tell me what is says for Name

ATI Radeon Xpress 200 series




Im sure you can run it, but you'd have to turn your settings down and it will look like crap

I am looking to buy a new one, I want something you would recomend...

I bought an ATI Radeon HD 3450 and it runs Garry's Mod on high settings no problem.

A little old yes, but it does well.

Power Supply Requirement: 300w
Bus slot: PCIe x16 2.0
Recommended amount of RAM: 1 Gig

A better way of going about this, would be to get all the specs on your pc then look around on Newegg.com for a graphics card that will suit your needs.

Unless you plan to only ever use your computer to play Garry's Mod.

Right click My Computer and select Properties for information on your computer.

DxDiag is another round about way of getting the same information.

Thanks alot NoZoner.
Because I'm half asleep, I almost misread this as an insult :/

Thats my old Graphics card.


Ya.. i had GMOD on that computer uh.... dont bother.

Any new current video card should work.
