Looking for a graphics card....

Post » Fri Apr 01, 2011 5:55 pm

Hey

My computer is fast and can run most games such as team fortess etc well. When i do "can you run it" tests for fallout i get all Yes apart from my graphics card which is a radeon x600. So i cant run fallout as i dont have shadermodel 3.
So i think this is the only thing wrong with my computer and i would like to buy a new graphics card for about or under ?40($65) that could run fallout so could you suggest any?
I live in the uk so if you could give me a link to one from like Play or amazon that would be great!

One last thing is how do i know if my computer can take a certain graphics card? Like do i have to check the PCI slot?

if anyone could help me with that itll be great!
thanks Alot!

Yes you need a PCI slot for most modern graphics cards. Don't think that you can find anymore AGP cards on the market anymore, even then the best you will find in AGP used is 7 series of Nvidia or maybe a few 8 series if your lucky but they will be used.

Everything else is PCI.
