ok i have a GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X, this isn't enogh to let me play the PC game Call of Duty Modern Warfare (1). I checked the site Can You Run It? and it says the minimum i need is a NVIDIA GeForce 6600+ (im gonna go with Nvidia cuz i have that now so....)
I actually have 2 questions
1. Do i need to have to update all other hardware to accommodate my soon to be new video card?
(bear in mind i have a 1 gb RAM and a 2.8 gHz performance computer)
2. How would i go about installing it? Do i need some sort of special card so it fits inside my computer without anything happening?|||You have four options, none of which I expect you to like:
1) Forget about playing CoD:MW (it's the cheap solution)
2) Buy an AGP based Radeon HD 4650/4670 video card. There are no AGP based nVidia cards available at 6600+ levels. There are some ATI based ones (a couple of companies took PCIe graphic processors and adapted them to AGP cards.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductLis…
3) Replace the motherboard, cpu, memory, video card (and probably power supply) to bring your system up to current performance levels.
4) Buy a new computer
#3 is probably the most cost effective|||1) depends on what motherboard you have
2) depends on what motherboard you have.|||You need to upgrade A LOT of parts. Especially your Motherboard cause it probably still use AGP and not PCI-e.|||increase ram to 3GB and but (depending your motherboard you will need a at least 1 gb graphics card|||what pc make and model do you have?
i would recommend getting more RAM as well if possible
also, make sure to get an AGP card, unless your PC also has a PCI-E slot
