this card costs about 130 on the web but 250 in retail stores and i plan on over clocking it the core clock standard is 500 mhz and the memory clock standard is 800 mhz i was planning to play it on medium settings is that possible if i overlock it??? since it has 512 video memory which is pretty good

Re: video card help!!!!

hmm, should be possible on medium settings. u could always experiment with it. im pretty sure u could even put some on high.

Re: video card help!!!!

theres a guide at firingsquad.com and it shows u a bunch of difference in video settings and therres a bunch of settings where setting it to medium or high wont make a difference in visual look, so i recommend setting those to medium


and a new vid card could help stop skipping, but skipping ususllay comes from either lag or not enuff RAM
