Mines a dell and it doesn't have one. I found them doing a web search but
they say 256 MB or 512 MB. How do I know which one I want? -- Superman "Paul Montgomery" wrote in message ...

Depends on how you want to use the video card. 512 is preferred, but, you
may never need the additional video ram if you don't play games. Also make sure that the p/c's power supply is up to the task. Many of the higher end video cards need more power than a low end power supply can provide. "Superman" wrote in message ... Mines a dell and it doesn't have one.

I've got an older 128mb card here and it's just fine - but I'm running Home Basic too g. "Superman" wrote in message ... Mines a dell and it doesn't have one.

I'm running home basic but I decided that for what I use the computer for I
don't need a better quality picture. I don't do any gaming just regular surfing, email news group etc. -- Superman "Paul Montgomery" wrote in message ...

computer card
A 128MB graphics card has all of the memory required plus a lot to spare to
hold all the 1080p buffers required to process 1080i or 1080p video for a single display system, If you are outputting high resolutions to two displays and have 1080i sources then a 256MB card is recommended. To have more memory on a graphics card then is required just requires more power from your power supply and is a waste of money. If you are gamer then a 256 or 512 card makes sense.
