Need computer help/hardware upgrade Jonielle Send a noteboard - 17/09/2009 02:16:22 PM
I'm thinking about buying a new video card, but I have no idea what to buy or if I need to consider anything.

Now I have an Acer Aspire M1201

The video card is an integrated ATI Radeon™ XPRESS 1200 Graphics.

Processor: AMD Athlon™ X2 dual-core processor

System Memory: Supports DDRII 667/800 up to a maximum of 4GB

I don't really know what that means however I have 2GB ram and is going to upgrade to 4GB.

My biggest problem is finding out if a card is better than my integrated or not. And it says something like "DDRII" or "GDDR3", does this has to be DDRII as my Ram is that or is this just what they call the memory in the video card.

Any help is appreciated. :)
