As you have a wide variety of video card manufacturers nowadays, choosing a video card can make you go dizzy.
It is essential that you buy a video card that is compatible to your computer’s hardware configuration and the connections available for the video card, otherwise it will all go waste.
Finding the right Video Card
Usually computers have PCI, AGP and ISA type connections. AGP (Advanced Graphics Port) is currently the standard for the latest motherboards.
AGP is directly connected to the computer memory, so it can store 3-D elements in the computer’s memory rather than using the video memory.
The PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) is one of the most frequently used Buses in computers today. Read the rest of this entry →

If you are someone who loves to play games like Fate, Diablo, Law & Order, Chainz, Luxor, Zuma, Mah Jong, etc. and don’t need anything overly fancy, then you might not be faced with the need of purchasing over-priced gaming machines and any decent configuration should suffice.
However if you are a hard-core gamer, who needs extreme graphics support and high-end configuration then you need to consider many aspects in your gaming PC.
Rendering 3D graphic environments and displaying complex animations requires enormous processor power and memory.
So even though your PC works fine for everyday tasks like e-mail, Web browsing, and playing music, it might not be able to run many of the latest games.

Recently I came across a recording of an interesting program on the TV broadcasted in the UK, which featured some highly qualified techies who explained the usability, quality and difference of other parameters between the CRT and flat-screens (of all types).
The answer basically was that CRTs are much cheaper and a good CRT has easily twice as better picture quality compared to a top range flat-screen costing several times more in price.
I have closely analyzed 5 CRT’s, and I find the IBM one the best for image quality. The cheapest being Daewoo is also good enough as long as it’s calibrated, but you still obviously see a big difference between the two. Read the rest of this entry →
