what is better, a 120 MB shard video card or a 64MB dedicated video card?

Anytime you have a "dedicated" part attached to a motherboard, you're in a better position than if you didn't have it. Shared parts utilize/leech off of other things that could work more efficiently, and therefore, effectively if they were working 100%. :)

Yea, it will un it, considering you have a great video card\n\nI bought a computer a week ago wth those stats exactly \n-1 gb ram ;(\n\nand it works great\n\nSLI is for dual cards, meaning buy 2 of the same video card, and you can use them both in conjunction\n\nif you not gonna use to video cards then get the A8N, that's what I bought (make sure it has PCI express \n\nagp is out\n\nI would get the harddriv with more room, rpm is not as important as transfer rate (SATA 3.0 gb/s, 1.5, etc

If you are looking for highest performance using multiboard, I would say Nvidia is better due to SLI. If you are looking to go with a single board, I would go with ATI Radeon. Overall, I think they are both closely matched video card. During the game, I do not think you would closely notice the difference of those two. As long as you are no using other video card from 3rd party, any one of those two should be okay.

not much. spend about 30 bucks more and get a 6600GT 128meg card. works with all games. very nice for the price. go to www.newegg.com  they have the best deals.

I have an AMD Athlon 64x2 3800+ Dual-Core and so far zero problems. I'm into transferring VHS to DVD, so I built a computer that I thought could handle that. As far as CyberPower PCs, I have no knowledge on them. If I were you, before you buy, go to the BBB on-line and check them out. You'll get a better picture on their customer service that way.

PNY Verto GeForce 6200 / 256MB DDR / AGP 8x/4x / DVI / VGA / TV Out / Video Card and  Diamond Radeon X1300 / 256MB DDR2 / AGP 8x/4x / DVI / VGA / TV Out / Video Card\nbut just buy a cheap pc with pci e

Condsidering the price and performance i would go for AMD though it is having some heating problems. 64 bit AMD is a good choice.

The fastest PCI video card you can buy is the 256MB ATI 9250: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102527  If you meant PCI-e, then this would be the best card for the money: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814131319 although you'd probably be happy with this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814161161

A has the best Video card, but C is not bad either and would probably be just a little faster at most operations. From personal experience, stay away from B (e-machines have let me down in the past. Depending on where you are located you might consider checking out a few other places:\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com\nhttp://www.dell.com\n\nThose are a couple that are pretty low prices. But if you only want the three you are looking at here, A is the best bet followed closely by C.

no, u r in dire need of up grading. no it is honestly less to buy a new 'puter than 2 upgrade. your video card is good, its what ive got but your total mem sux. plus get 512 ram and a 1 gig slave drive. ooh im still impressed with mine and it was only  $350 new. from wally-world, i mean wal- mar, u know.

If you have a PCI Express slot get one of those.  Regardless go with NVIDIA or an NVIDIA line, they are better than any other company out there.  All my friends who work for CAD, Architecture, programming and for Disney, Dreamworks use Nvidia.  I would go with a 256MB Nvidia line that supports directX 9.  The higher the res it can max out at the better as well becaue if you play it at a lower res than the max supported your card works faster.  Also the Nvidia drivers are much easier to work with I had a 5500OC 256 card and was able to use the 5700 drivers for it without any problems.  If you want to change and upgrade your mobo, then upgrade to one that has PCI Express slots in them as PCI is going to be completely phased out  and soon AGP will be phased out as well.  Depending on how soon you plan to upgrade your mobo I'd wait and get one with a PCI Express slot then buy a PCI E card with the specs previously mentioned.

I'd recommend you attach a AGP card of arounfd 256MB, something like NVidia

I am currently using an ATI ALL-IN-WONDER 2006 EDITION -  RADEON 9600 256 MB TV tuner. The nice things about the all-in-wonder cards is they are high quality graphics cards with TV tuners built in. Excellent frame-rate on games and no lag on the TV. There are tuner-only cards you can get (MSI TV Anywhere, ATI TV Wonder) and I know ATI makes a USB TV Wonder, but I personally prefer to have everything in one package. I expect you would have poorer performance on a seperate PCI card or USB adapter.

you would be better off using 2 500GB HDs or 4 250GB HDs. they are cheaper than a one tera HD.

Mmm, don't really have enough information to tell you exactly how big of a difference. For example: some of the geforce 7900 cards are 256mb, some are 512mb. Either way, you're likely at least doubling your video memory, and going from agp to pci-ex, correct? It would make a huge difference, but Oblivion is a resource hog. It would be much smoother, but it wouldn't be perfect.

AMD FX60 (around 1000.00) a GeForce 7900 GTX EXTREME at $549 (which is far from the most expensive video card...)\nIf you don't really want the best, then a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ is $630 and a Geforce 7800GTX 256MB is around $500.\nAffordable is relative...
