Hey there,
My graphics card is fried for unknown reasons maybe from aging maybe from climate changes I don't know. I also don't know much about them I've got average knowledge when it comes to computers but don't know much about graphics cards specifically, but I can install and remove them along with the drivers fine just need some help picking a new one that is decent and reasonably priced. Was leaning towards NVIDIA since that's what came with the computer and assume compatibility with them wouldn't be an issue. But am open to any suggestions I hear Radeon is good as well.
Currently not really playing any comp games occasionally SC II, but once it's out I want to be able to run Diablo III with at least very high settings if not higher with no lag. I've also been thinking about trying out SWtoR and would like to have high settings there as well.
Here are my comp specs: (bought it about 3.5 years ago)
