[brycer7]

Hello,
im planning to buy a geforce 8400gs to upgrade my onboard gpu. since im not a gamer i just want to use it in graphic designing watching hd movies etc. need advice thanks guys!

8400GS is faster

[Maziar]

What about it ?

 

[brycer7]

are they the same interms of resolution? sorry dont know about gpu. =(

 

[Maziar]

Well,8400GS supports up to 1920x1200 resolution(via DVI) and Intel HD 2000 is the same(but IIRC,it will support up to 2560x1600 via displayport)

should i stick with intel HD2000 coz my friend selling me his 8400gs for $10 only. how can i maximize the output resolution coz im planning using hdmi cable to connect it with my samsung hd 1080p lcd tv as my monitor.

For non-gaming purposes you won't see much of a difference.But for $10 it's worth it
