I was just wondering on how do i make my video card work much better for better gaming experince

Run this scan and post back the results so that we can see what type of slots are on your motherboard plus what card you currently have:

After that comes questions like what do you want to spend?

Do you want other things other than good gaming? Such as Multimedia? TV? Multi-monitor? etc.

basically good gaming and media player like when i want to download a trailer from the internet it jus takes too long and is not working properly.. But i really want better gaming.. i like take a lookat the wbesite u have instructed

Hi Troubled Kid,

A new graphics card can certainly help with gaming but downloading trailers from the Internet to run in Media Player won't be any quicker. The time that it's taking is restricted by your Internet connection. If you watch a clip that is streamed over the Internet, it downloads the first bit and then starts playing but, in the background, it is still downloading the next bits that it will soon need to show you. When it starts "buffering" (the video freezes while it downloads some more), that's because your PC isn't downloading it quick enough to continue playing smoothly.

I hope that clarifies that for you.

If you still want advice on the gaming side, then run the D-A-L Online Hardware Scan that Jephree gave you the link for and we'll let you know what your options are if you clarify your budget. We might even recommend that you buy the one that I've got on auction in the D-A-L Trader area!

P.S. We'll need to know where you are (UK, US, Europe?) to be able to advise you on costs and/or potential suppliers

Thanx alot for explaining thats wat i was thinking becuz my interent is so slow becuz i have aol 9.0 optimized and im from the U.S. of illionois, chicago...Aslo theres no updates i can do for my video card?

AOL is renowned for causing Internet connection/performance problems. Each new version seems to get worse and worse, particularly if you don't have a very modern PC.

You may be able to get updated driver files for your graphics card from the manufacturer's web site, which might include performance updates but, if so, they would only be minor. For a significant improvement, you would need to replace the graphics card with a better one.

so this webite can upgrade my video card?

Erm, no, not really. What I was saying was that the manufacturer's web site might have updated driver files that you can download and install and those might contain performance updates but they would only be very minor ones.

For a significant upgrade, you'd need to replace the graphics card with a better one.
