COD4 video cards...

[ShArP]

I was wondering if someone could give me a link to all the video cards that are capable with COD4 because i am looking to getting a new one to make mine run better...

if you can give me links with prices, with atleast the best one and the minimum one that will run it

[Steve]

what you got now m8? and what size screen have you got? what budget?

cod4 has very low requirements: NVIDIA 6600 or better/ATI X1300 or better

a 8800GT would be an idea purchase http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814143118 and should handle any game on max apart from crysis, unless u have a monitor over 22"

[ShArP]

i currently got a ATI RADEON Xpress 200 Series and i think it is below the minimum requirements lol

and i have an old monitor, Dell E771a, and under 22"

and my computer is a HP Pavilion 061

and the budget isn't a problem, and does circuit city sell video cards?

8800 GT

Don't get anything else, Get the 8800 GT. The best card on the market right now.

what type of video card connection would it need to plug-in to stander PCI slot?

circuit city resource Video cards: http://www.circuitcity.com/rpsm/chan...ategorylist.do

did see a ati radion 1950 pci video card listed on page "2" or 3

i think thats the mainboard video.

sharp, you need to find out if you have an agp slot or a pci express x16

i got an 8800GTS 321 or w/e it is in the 300mb range.. amazing card plays cod4 on max res for my monitor 1440x900 i think.. and all on high

crysis will run at medium and with sum on high

[ShArP]

how do i check the stuff that you, William & Mstenger, said because i never did this before...

and how much does the 8800GTS cost??

Its the processor you need to be concerned about.

My AmD Athlon 2800+ won`t run it!
DARN!

I have a 7900GS video card too!

this is gonna require you to open your case and take a glance inside at the slots on your motherboard. Look for what they're shaped like, most would look like regular PCI slots but especially in old motherboards there would be One special slot for video, they're either AGP or PCI express. look at the slot these parts would fit in.



This is your prime choice if its PCI Express

dont mind the tab, it is rated for PCI Express


If your still slackin with AGP like me...
Good luck


its really time to straight up buy a new pc, AGP is dead

[Chrispy]

If you look in your motherboard, you might be able to tell if you have an AGP, PCI, or PCI-E.

If you see a brown slot that's different from the rest, and your GFX card sits in there, that could mean it's AGP.

I'm still on AGP. It's not that bad!

Oh, and go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information.

In the System Summary section, it should tell you the name of the mobo under System Model.

If you have the name of the mobo, Google it up. There should be pages telling you everything about the mobo including what type of graphics port it uses.

if the motherboard is a cheap one or at least 3 years old then i dont think u will get a good PCI-E card..

8800GTS = £140-£180... for 320mb

[Stephen]

i have a 8800 gt and it runs the game perfect

[ShArP]

well i have a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+, MMX, 3DNow, 2.2GHz

if that will work with it

[Mstenger404]

A processor like that is powerful enough to work a Geforce 7800 GS. i know that because my old processor, a single core 2.0ghz could do it. but thats probably the best for it since if the game demands more power, the processor is the bottleneck.
