[jjangl337]

Hi im currently using a 1.0 ghz with a motherboard that supports sdram only and imusing 384 amount of ram i also have a sh*tty 16 mb graphics card umm im hopefully trying to get a 9600 ati or a 5600 nvidia ddr 128 mb do u think that my comp can handle it i can tell u more info if u guys want sorry im kinda stupid wit hardware

I don't see why it wouldn't handle it. Now I don't think it will be able to handle it to the best of the cards capabilities, but it will work none the less.

BTW,

Someone had a query like that not so long ago. Allthough quite a few VGA cards have been released since then , I believe a lot of the tips given in that thread are still valid.

Improve video without an upgrade?

His specs are quite similiar to yours too.
