fydence: ...oh thanx alot...didnt knw you u cld fix an AMD graphics card on an Intel Processor...are there any drawbacks? Probably lyk data loss or any other? By the way Its good to know u are ok sir!Yeah..its possible..but for optimized gaming performance, just get an NVIDIA graphics card..its a specialized gaming asset..just don't try and change the processor..AMD(ATI) processors heat up rapidly..intel i3 is just ok...If you are into soccer games, an i3 will be more than ok..you won't have to change anything in your PC...bt other "high-grade" games like COD, HALO, assassin's creed and the rest need powerful engines..or they will be too slow..like I said, just leave the processor...and get an NVIDIA or AMD Radeon Graphics card...ill advice you go for NVIDIA..its more specialized for gaming..as long as the change is done by skilled technicians, it should just be fine...and thanks, we are fine here..newer hardware that I would have put on the thread..bt..u kno na..lol 1 Like |

fydence: Pls is it possible to upgrade a PC with the following specs for optimal gaming?Desktop or laptop? If desktop; It depends on the board you are using. Some desktop motherboard are not graphically upgradeable due to the power of the graphic cards. An example is, lets say nvidia 560 gtx sli has power watts close to 350-400 and ur motherboard watts is 250 watts. That board can not power the gpu. If its a laptop: it can not be upgraded. Your best bet is to upgrade the motherboard to a higher version of that laptop line. But buying a new motherboard is close to getting another system. My advice is this, get is that you gaming console save yourself the stress of upgrading every year or two. |
