[Thistle]

I need a new video card for world of warcraft, what should I get?. right now i have a 32 mb Nvidia piece of shit. What should I get and for how much?

I only have aroun 300$ to spend is that enough?

Do you have an AGP slot, and whats your Power Supply? Oh, and that will be plenty. >;0

if you got a agp port, get a 9800, if you dont, get a new mobo+processor

You guys are so biased. For 300$ an 6800 NU is the best choice.

[Thistle]

Sorry guys, I am a newb at this kind of stuff, what is a agb port? I have a usb. and Im not sure what my power supply

thistle you shouldnt be mess'n with your comp if you dont know what a agp port is.

Its actually a slot... to learn about PC's I suggest you start reading some articles at www.overclockers.com .

A 6800 would be better than a 9800 if it were made by Wal-Mart... ATi isn't the God of all video cards

[COTA-GoD]

a 9800 is better cause he can buy something else for his comp at the same time for the price of the 6800

[Krovvy]

Hes asking for a video card though.

I would borrow parent's money and just buy x800.

[jd-inflames]

Are you kidding, N? x800's are cheaper than the 6800's BY FAR!!!

Those PCI-E cards are dirt cheap. Only problem is, most people would have to buy a new motherboard for them...and beings it's so new, I doubt there is a good stable supporting board for it, even the nForce4.

x800 is agp x600 is pci-e

My uncle is going to do it for me and I will watch to learn. I am just getting into this "tech stuff" and the only thing really holding me back is my knowledge is total shit and I have no cash.

i wouldnt spend all your 300 dollars on a video card. get a 199$ card and save your money for something eles. I think that if you had a 32mb card b4, your computer wouldnt be able to use all the 6800 or X800's power, so get a lower model and save some money.
