Are you telling us your new system or are you asking our opinions?

 

[Fooozball]

Get a better gfx, considering it only came out to 815?

 

[Gravite]

A lot of people is telling me to get another graphic card. Is this card that bad overall?

 

[kof2000]

is not bad if you dont play games.

 

[Gravite]

is not bad if you dont play games.

Nice. So which video card would you recommend? 8800GTX?

 

[kof2000]

8800gts 640 or 2900xt 512 if you're low on cash if you have cash to blow then the gtx/ultra/xt 1gb

 

[Gravite]

Just a curiosu question how come my vid card has the highest Core clock and Memory clock?

 

[kof2000]

midrange cards seems to have faster clocks than higher end card because they dont need them. back when the 6600gt has fast core and memory and the 6800 is slower but 6800 still more powerful.

 

[Fooozball]

8800 GTX is about 500$. If you don't have the money get the 320 MB 8600 GTS or the 640 MB.

 

[Gravite]

I thought more memory= bigger resolution...

 

[kof2000]

resolution depends on your monitor and video card. monitors max resolution and the max resolution the card supports.

having more memory on the video card allows you to run games at higher resolution without problems.

 

[Gravite]

Well i am going to play my games at 1024x768 so i don't think theres any problem using a low memory card

8800 Gtx!!
