Graphics card
« on: November 23, 2012, 09:08:24 pm »
Alrighty Bay12, I got a problem here for you, recently I bought a new PC and it has been brought to my attention it needs a better graphics card to run Planetside2. This must be remedied. After a hunt for a decent graphics card leaving my not very techno savy mind in the dust, I turn to you. I would like to find a relatively cheap graphics car ($100-300) So now, halp plox.

there is a difference between droping red numbers representing magma on Es representing elves, and finding it hot when a girl moans like a retarded seal

Just make sure the card will fit as its quite long, 10.5 inch i think.

Also what size of power supply do you have?
