So you only have PCI slots and want to game?

He doesn't have to go to all that trouble, all he has to do is buy a solid nice prebuilt rig and buy a nice cheap pcie card and he will be gaming very good.
 
I already suggested that some time ago and it wasn't well received. Didn't like cutting their PCI-e x1 slot to make a PCI-e x16 card fit through it. Don't kill the messenger...
 
Can I play 1080p HD (rips) using an nvidia with CUDA but through PCI slot

Hi!

Everything is in the title.

I have agp, but no nvidia+CUDA for AGP, so I thought what about PCI.

At all, can I use CUDA (or purevideoHD, point is using GPU to decode 1080p x264) with these PCI versions of nvidia cards?

Thx!
 
That card is weak and old. An improvement over many people's onboard but not much else. Windows should load faster with it though, mine did with my FX5500.

I had both the BFG 6200 OC 256mb card and the Evga 6200 pci card. The BFG 6200 Overclock edition is the best version, mostly because it has a fan and is slightly faster. The EVGA 6200 is the worse, no fan, heats up really quick, seriously. I will just grab the 6200 from bfg its one of the best cards i have own. Just make sure you use the 81.98 drivers. :)

Nobody should buy a GF6200 in 2010. It doesn't matter which one is "better", they are all crap. A 8400GS PCI is well under 50$ now and is better than any of those 6200s.

Neither 6200 or 8400gs is worth buying, how about that ok. I had all of those pci cards, the 8400gs is only about 15% faster, depending on your rig 20% faster, but overall, i wouldn't suggest anyone to buy any pci cards. But if the person is only able to get pci, get a 9500gt or find the 8600gt.
 
I bought an 8400gs recently for a HTPC, and I would say they are definitely worth getting. You say to get the 9500, but look at the price difference. the 8400gs can be had for 40$, while the 9500 and 9400 both start at about twice that much, if not more. With those cards, you are paying twice as much for what probably ammounts to only a couple FPS faster.
 
I think this 6200OC will work well on my old Dell 2400 as long as the card is not more than 256MB.

Frys was selling them at $39 per piece few weeks ago. Not sure if I can find any more now.
 
graphics on computers suck its nothing close to real life when are we going to see any revolution pc gaming mobile phone useage.

why do you say not more then 256mb?
i ran a 8400gs 512mb on my old p3 600mhz computer, no problems, all memory was present.
 
You must forgot to read my previous posts.

For some freaking dell reason, my Dell 2400 performs well only with card not more than 256mb.

I have tried 9500gt 512GB, 9400gt 1GB, HD4350 512mb and x1550 and none of them work better than the current card: geforce 5200 256mb. I used COD2 for testing and only this 5300 could give me mid 30s FPS and the rest were under 10FPS!!!!

Someone here mentioned the bottleneck effect and I think this applies to this secret Michael Dell's machine pretty well.

What a freaking joke!
 
The way I see it with Michael Dell is, he does not care if your PC is low end and you want to game and upgrade.

These Dell machines do last a long time, very tough, but low end.
 
i dont even know how dell manages to stay in buisness how can gate-way be discontinued but dell stay in buissnes after the pc industry crashed in the early 2000's?

i couldnt believe the mass-guerrila marketing campaign surrounding the pre-release of the Xbox 360 i remember all this hype how its gonna change the way we play video games and its gona blow are minds and the graphics will be revoultionary and i recall peter moore being ittorgated by a reporter about the competeion that they faced from sony via the blu-ray player at a showcase of the 360 pre-launch at CES in late 05 and him mubbleing about the prospect noting that it would be to expensive for the average consumer to purchase at a tag of 3.000$ and the reporter saying that you do know they'll have built in the PS3 but him denying the rumor and continue to nag on the price point its simply to eostly and doesnt do much different than HD DVD player.

are you serious? yikes,
Hmmm... from your post's it appears the only thing you have ever approved is your own birth. it was a lighthearted comment little boy. you would do well to relax....you're going to give yourself a heart attack before you turn 17. Maybe you would not be so disappointed that the ole video games are not an exact substitute for real life if you got off the couch and ,you know....actually went outside?? Fear not, the big shiny thing in the sky...is the sun....he is your friend,yes he is....yes he is.

Bye
