Games or Video card?

Posted by BenRK on Dec. 27, 2006, 5:58 p.m.

After doing some searching, I must now make a choise. Do I want to get some games for my DS and GCN or a video card for my computer? I want games, but I also want a video card (so I can run games faster and better). I'm pointing towards video card, but the problem is, I have a Dell computer, and I've heard it's hard to install video cards in a dell. Is it even posible TO install a video card on a dell?

And if so, what card do you recomend? I don't need one thats SUPER UBER, I just need one that will last me a few years at least (if it dosen't take a few years to install).

If not, what games do you recomend for my DS and GCN?

In other news, I'm going to release a WIP for Dr. Putts Mini Golf in January. When in January, I don't know. I only just finished writting a test level file (any kind of level you want (that the game can provide) in a file with the size that ANY computer can hold (new or old). It's only 24kbs text file (soon to by encrypted) with the extention of .dpl (Dr Putts Level). This should make sharing levels super easy, and my old old very old 1997 computer that has only 100MBs in memory, if I used that as a holding server, 10MBs would be enough.

Enough of that, I want to know what game or video card I should get.

Where is that chick who ran away who knows something about mithril rings to take that curse away form that town?

Do you have all the characters? If so, you should also have the air ship. If so, there is a cave to the north that is on the other side of a small lake. She's in there.

If not, get all the characters and the air ship.

Or if I'm thinking of the wrong person, talk to Cid, he'll tell you where the air ship is (Cid is in the Inn as a ghost), and there she is

Yea, its fairly simple to install graphics cards on any modern computer. At least from my experience.

You should look on Dell's comunity's before attempting to install any addong Graphics card's. Dell'motherboards are not very friendly and not many graphics card's are easy to install some impossible.
