Hi,
I am wanting to upgrade the graphics card on my Dimension 4550. It currently has the stock GeForce Mx 420. I searched around on Newegg and found this:
It has the same 128-bit bus as the old card, the same memory type, and the same bus type.
Will it work? I want to make sure before i make a purchase once it becomes available.
I'm using it to play a couple games, but I could actually play those games semi-smooth with the MX 420 if I turned the graphics to the lowest possible. I'm not looking for anything expensive, as I know that this computer won't be able to play most of the mid-high end games. I only need it to last for 2 more years, and if it has played games for this long with the very old MX 420, then I think that this upgrade will show nice improvements in my framerates and quality of graphics.
should work but its wasting your money the fx series r crap i had a fx 5600 and i found it nowhere as good as a radeon 9600 the 6xxx series of nvidia on the other hand was rather good imo
