HI,
I have a 2 year old Sony Vaio PCVRx860 that the guy at Circuit City told me I would have to pay them $40.00 to install a GeForce 5500 graphics card that would need to be tweaked ( $20.00 more ) by them to run my World of Warcraft game. He said my computer needed an APG 4X compatible graphics card. SO the PCI's are not for me. He also said I could not use the APG 8X cards either, but I could use the APG 8X/4X graphics card.
At Best Buy, their floor saleman said that was BS and that I could get the GeForce 6600 graphics card withthe APG 8X interface(?) and that the APG cards that say they are for 8X are "backwards compatible to the 4X." Is that true?
Who should I believe? And What should I do. What about a NVidia GeForce 6800GT card?
Jeff
