HD4350 Good for Gaming?

[ncjeff]

Friend got a new Dell PC with a HD 4350 card. Seems kind of low power considering Tom's hierarchy chart but I might be mistaken. Is there something about the new Intel CPU/MB configs that makes it a contender? I've been suggesting he needs to bump it up to a 4850 minimum.

Much depends on the resolution you are using and what settings you like to play your games at. The 4350 may be "sufficient" for gaming but it's not great more or less good.

Basic rule of thumb is to look at the second digit of a graphics card model number. The higher that second digit is, the more performance you'll get out of a card. What games your friend is playing and (as erocker states) what resolution the games are played at will determine the performance of the card. I'd probably recommend an HD4650 at a minimum.

Only if you think G.W. Bush was a good president. It's all about your expectations after all. ^_^

The minimum I would recommend is the HD 4670 for any type of gaming. It is good enough for most games if modest graphics and resolution settings are used.

The HD 4350 is good enough to watch video.

Actually, I'd say the minimum is a 4650 DDR2, preferably DDR3 for gaming.

9500GT < 4650 DDR2

It's all about your processor. you rgraphics card is only 40 % of graphics output AND AN HD4350 IS AS GOOD AS AN NVIDIA 9000 series +

Of course it is. It compares with the 9800 GTX+ . It is an ultra gaming card :lol:
Now, on a serious note...the minimum card I recomend for gaming is the 4770.

OOOOOOOhhhhhhhhhhh we didn't know that .So thanks for showing us the light.So instead of buying a 6870 i'll just buy a 4350 and a core-i7-980x
and demolish any game out there in the market. :lol: :lol:

I have HD4350 you can play Crisis Warhead in 800x600 all minimum (phisics on gamer and something else on gamer) with min. 30 fps.
But anything higher is too much for that card. I´m going to buy HD5750 soon.
