hahahahahahahha....that's funny and serious. I jux need a gud gpu and booooom! people wud be admiring me from the houses miles away.

Yah that's what you need...

I hinted on the GTX970 on my clan on our last night gaming session, this morning everyone wants to replace his GPU.. It's nuts.

My PC is finally up and running and I decided to install an old PES 2013 disk from my friend since I am yet to go Game shopping... Buh the PES 2013 keeps saying that my Video card doesn't meet up whenever i try to start the gane but I have a Nvidia 840M 2gb Dedicated Memory.. Am a bit confused atm. Any help guys?

Some games do not support laptop GPUs.... but first download the latest Nvidia drivers for your GPU and lets run the game and see what happens.

that is strange indeed. It shud be able to play. Does it state specifically which part it doesn't meet? Is it the actual card or the vram? Cud be that even tho there is a dedicated 2gb to the gpu, it myt not be seeing it well.

Have finally fixed it, It wasn't the game. It was from windows 8.1 OS.. Just a minor synaptic connections issue and then restarted my PC and the problem stopped...Call of duty running flawlessly now on max settings and shadow details on. Am so enjoying this PC now.
Currently looking for how to get FIFA 15 and GTA V discs..May have to download it though...Thanks for your concerns

Bro.. hw much did u get the laptop and is it an hp pavilon??

@ActivateKruger, and @kimco. I have to say, your gaming rigs are beasts; I'm quite impressed.
@ActivateKruger, please which AMD CPU are you using; is it an FX-series CPU, or an A-series CPU.

Unfortunately it will be very difficult for anyone living in Nigeria to have gaming desktop PCs such as yours; you can hardly find Intel's Core i series processors, Modern AMD CPUs, DirectX10 GPUs, and DirectX11 GPUs in Nigerian computer markets. Instead you'll find crap like AMD AthlonXP CPUs, Intel Pentium D CPUs, hopeless GPUs (Geforce 5500FX for instance), pathetic monitors (non-widescreen types), boring cases, unreliable PSUs and some other laughable components at truly atrocious prices.
It's like those sellers just met and concluded that we do not deserve to have modern computer parts over here. Funny thing is they always focus on bringing in modern computer peripherals; like boring printers, boring scanners, and boring office equipment in general. If you want to assemble or even purchase a gaming rig here, you might have to import the parts or the complete system by yourself. That's the main reason why most of the respondents on this thread are always talking about laptop configurations; because getting a laptop is the only way we can have access to modern computer hardware.
Thanks.

You forgot to Mention the portability being another reason Nigerians go for a laptop than a Desktop...We are always on the go...However, Good points you mentioned above.. The Nigerian Society hasn't opened up to much development in the area of Technology..
You can imagine how difficult it is to find a gaming Clan in this Country. Even Online games are rare in this country due to tariff plans imposed on us by our Telecom providers. I pray with the gradual enlightenment that we the modern day youths are experiencing, we would realize how backwards we are in Technology and seek ways of changing such...Cos Its an eyesore

dat explains plenty. That's less than half my screen resolution. Also mw3....dats why. If it was ghost...u'd be crying I swear.

Are u aware that on a gtx 980 and an i5 2K series assasin's creen unity still struggles to max and maintain 60fps? Dat doesn't bode well for me let alone u. Next gen games are seriously demanding now.

Don't u have an online store where people sell used stuffs? The only thing new in my pc is the motherboard( dat was cos I cudn't find a used one) and the cpu fan (becos my old one didn't fit.)

The gpu was bought used from a friend, ram, used, psu used, case is an old acer case with so much room to spare and ports, monitor used. The cpu was actually a gift from a friend I've been helping out. Was using a dual core 3.4ghz cpu ( which run fine btw, but with obvious bottlenecks) then my firend who cudn't afford to buy the parts for a new cpu ( mobo, ram and cpu fan) gave it to me so that I cud give him one of my Cpu+mobo+ram combo which was a core 2 duo. I say it was a gift becos searching for an i7 first gen cpu in ghana meant u had to give out ur lungs for sale, let alone a 3rd gen i7 cpu like the one he gave to me. So u see, I am in the same boat. I only had luck on my side.

Hmmm...so right. In Ghana a ati hd5450 gpu is sold for 150$. Yes! A low level media purposed gpu sold for that price. Even the gtx 210 is advertised as "very powerful gpu for games can play all games including fifa 14" and cost about the same, a fricking gtx 210. This is done by a chinese group who ship in absolutely cheap of the line gpus with high vram (video ram) and deceive people into buying them. I got tricked once even.
Small tip: the video ram of a gpu does not indicate the strength of that gpu. U cud have a 512mb gpu wipe the floor with a 2gb gpu, say the gtx 8800 512mb and the 240gs 2gb

Proper gpus are very scarce here and can never be found new so u have to hope u can find one at the biggest online trading center "tonaton", olx isn't dat great for pc parts. A gtx 8800 which is a dx9 gpu and over 8yrs old cost as much as it did when it came out here. That's three tyms the dollar rate in ghana cedis. U wanna order an I series cpu? Well too bad...u only get core 2 duos and quad cores which cost 2x what they shud cost. If u get lucky and find an I series cpu, be ready to spend a fortune on it. Even a low level i3 cpu which is a dual core with hyper threading costs a fortune. Why!

All monitors come in small sizes and becos they have the word "led" inscribed on them, u'll have to pay a premium for them. So a 19" led monitor cud cost around 100$...yeah u heard me. 2gb of ddr3 ram is 40$ per stick. Capable power supplies are extremely hard to come by cos like u guys, most are crap chinese pos. Had my galaxy s1 stolen becos I was searching for a capable psu to run my newly acquired (at the tym) gtx 280 gpu, which by the way was power hungry. This is something that can be easily bought online in the west with a simply google search. No amount of search engine can help u in west africa.

I go to internet forum to help me with my problems like my motherboard not responding. Do u know what they tell me most of the tym?
"Dude it looks like ur mobo croaked, u need to
buy a new one"
Then they proceed to actually recommend affordable motherboards for me. Do u know how I feel everytym that happens? I die a little insyd. Becos I can't get this in my country and even if I did, it'll cost me all my savings for a year (at that tym). These were guys my age mostly who cud easily afford and recommend stuff without even trying to fix their motherboard. They weren't rich, things were jux affordable for them. So I actually search and search till I find a forum where I can actually try and fix my motherboard, mostly to no avail...so that means no desktop for me for a long tym.

I hear ur "on the go" claim and I agree to an extent...tell me how many nigerians have state of the art laptops to play games (except fifa and pes)that move like slideshows, or simply capable lappies?

West africa is lagging behind technology too much. I have yet to see a blu ray player in anybody's house. The only bluray discs I have laid my eyes on are ps3 games. That's how bad it is. Cheaply made hd tvs, u know, the casual line, are very expensive....becos...it's a hdtv. Old and small sized plasmas cost 700$, thats the least.

I won't even goto the isp problems we encounter.

This is too much and must change.
