Re: about PCI video cards...

It is further alleged that on or about 31 Dec 2005 12:48:10 -0800, in
alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt, the queezy keyboard of
franciz3@xxxxxxxxx spewed the following:

|whoaw... i woke up and checked my computer....and theres bunch of
|replies on this topic... :-D THANKS all...
|
|well first.. i checked my BIOS and i found this:
|
|Onboard Video Memory: set to 8mb (options: 8mb and 1mb)
|Primary Video Adapter: set to PCI (options: PCI and Onboard) (weird..
|isnt this suppose to be set to onboard???)
|
|ok.. so don't get 256mb pci video card because my comp can't handle
|it... and also... dont buy/install PCIe's... because they're new. and
|my computer is old... ?

PCI Express requires a special slot, you do not have one.
|
|I know my computer sucks and it's not made for hardcore gaming.... once
|i get my pci video card i am not expecting huge difference... but i am
|expecting lil better performance than before... lil smoother world of
|warcraft gameplay... hopefully.

Go ahead and get one, you will be pleased, not delighted, but pleased.
You will enjoy improved game play.
|
|another question... is there a way for me to add a AGP slot on my
|motherboard??? or am i gonna have to do buy a new motherboard for
|that??

No, you cannot add an AGP slot, if you do get a new motherboard, it
will have to be micro ATX to fit into your case.

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory?
to his buddy, Norm. "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this. A herd
of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when
the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back
that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd
as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group
keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In
much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the
slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know,
kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest
brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer
eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and
more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after
a few beers.
