Yes im back again i finally realised my graphics slot is AGP 8x...Not PCI

So here is the link for it: http://www.dynax.co.za/product_info.php?products_id=539

only a couple of probs i found with it..

Is it good for SS08?
Is there a better series then that out there for AGP 8x (i looked everywhere so i doubt it)
AND MOST OF ALL.... Since its a  7600GS.. Is GS good or bad?

if you can find a good, cheap one for SS08 please tell me.

Cheers, Matt

Hiya Matt

The GS cards are ok, but there are better cards out there, even for AGP slots

yes fore the mem in grapick card sits on the card and not on you motherbord do that dosent metter at all, they have diferent pins  so on the motherbord you can't use diferent mem but have you power enof to drive this you most atlist haw a PSU  400 W

my self has motherboard with ddr 2 ram and graphic card with ddr 4 works perfect

That's true

DDR 2 and above are backwardly compatible with previous versions (DDR), so you should have no problems

The pins on DDR/DDR2 RAM are different, but AGP and PCI-e are standard, so again you shouldn't have any problems

Wow Thanks for the help again.

Well so anyway should i buy that Geforce 7300GT for $130?

Cheers, Matt

[[RWP]DJM]

If anyone was to advise you of buying THAT particular card, and it was a bad choice, you wouldn't be too happy I would imagine.  I will refrain from advising on a particular purchase because of this, surely it's a personal decision that only you should make

Regards.

DJM.

[matt105]

awwww come on..lol i aint gonna blame anyone if it dont work but myself so please give me an answer..lol

Cheers,
Matt

[[RWP]DJM]

Ok, I can advise that the 7300GT is a good card, but I can't advise of which Manufacturer (or Retailer) you should buy it from

Regards.

DJM.

[matt105]

Oh it is coming from a unknown graphics shop..lol thats sells them on ebay but its an NVIDIA card.

Cheers, Matt

[[RWP]DJM]

It may be just me, but something coming from an 'unknown graphics shop' would be a scary thought

Despite what most people think, nVidia don't manufacture their own cards.  Have a look on google for nVidia cards, and you'll see that they are all preceeded by PNY, ASUS, MSI, Sparkle, or some other manufacturer.  These cards can have subtle differences between different manufacturers

Personally I don't like auction sites, I never have, but that's me

Regards.

DJM.

[matt105]

well the seller does have over 2000 feedbacks and his/her  rank is 99.8% positive and i like auctions because there exciting...

So my answer will be yes i will buy it..lol

Cheers, Matt

[matt105]

Oh and it is "Buy it now" not "bid" so thats a relief...

[[RWP]DJM]

It's a decision only you can make of course, and don't let me put you off......I'm just fussy
