I am trying build a new comp and seeing if need to get new vid card to replace old and crappy vid card. Don't want spend too much on new comp. I am currently using 866 mhz with Geforce MX 440 which I got for cheap $$, actually replaced a older 16 mb TNT card with that.
Anyhow, what is a good vid card needed for expect gaming mainly? Was thinking rendering and video encording might need it, but I rarely ever do that. I usually never do any intensive gaming. Only play starcraft soemtimes, which actually ran just fine on my old P 166mghz comp, so doubt that would really call for new vid card.
Usually never do anything intensive, expect multitasking. Usually use firefox, Visual C++ complier, chat programs, winamp, etc at the same time, which slows down my 866 P3. Think it worth spending $$ on new vid card for my new comp?
