Hi. This is my current computer (Link). I give you that link because I can't bring up specs since I am away at college. When I first bought it, the guy at the store told me it was a decent computer for gaming. The only game I play on my computer is Sims 3. It runs really well and I can play with all my settings enabled and on high without a problem, no lag whatsoever. But, some things I do not have a good enough graphic card for, such as seeing the "fluff" on pets. Here's an example (Image Link) I see what's on the left. Basically, I want a graphic card that will give me fluff.
Also, anytime I attempt to play an MMORPG, I have to play with my settings on low. My graphic card (ATI Radeon HD 3200) sucks for them. Someone told me I would have to get an external graphic card, as I cannot update my current one since it's integrated. Based on the type of computer I have, does anyone have any recommendations for an external? I know the absolute "best" graphic cards and gaming computers are ridiculously expensive, but my price range is $350-400.
I would also love to run Skyrim on my computer with decent graphics, too. If anyone knows of the perfect external graphic card for both games, I would be ecstatic. But, if I cannot have the best of both worlds, that's fine. Being able to play Skyrim on my computer (instead of xbox) would just be like, an added bonus! :lol:
Lastly, if anyone knows of a decent gaming computer for under $400 that I could just go and purchase instead, I would also love that option as well. I'm not even sure if I'm better off going the external graphic card route, or new computer route! Thanks in advance.
