You can't change the graphics card in a laptop.

And Dell doesn't make graphics cards.

try the geforce 2, i use it and i get 120 fps on crysis

Geforce GTX 295 - Bestest
Geforce GTX 285 - Fastest
Geforce GTX 275 - Sexiest

wai they so expensive?

Because They are "Good Things"


Good Things cost Good Money

I bought this today.

Its ok.. You can play most games on Max.

But as a Pro, I take my shit with Geforce 200

1. You cannot upgrade graphics cards on a laptop unless you have MXM hardware, and even then it's such a pain in the ass that it's not worth it.

2. If you want a decent graphics card in a laptop purchase a laptop with a geforce 9600 or 9800.

3. Dell doesn't make graphics cards. They place the graphics chips in their machines.

^ Go with the 9800, thats what I have in my laptop and can run everything maxed out fine.

Honestly it doesn't matter which one you go with, yes you will run everything maxed with the 9800, but cmon it's a laptop... With that tiny screen, the difference between max and not is barely noticable.

9800 was the shit back last year.

Now its the Geforce 200 bitch!

I got my 9800 when it first came out. It's still the shit.

I'm going to get another one soon and do THREE WAY SLI.

I have a massive screen with 1440 x 900 Resolution, I notice the difference between max and medium very much.

I believe you.


What if I buy a Dell Inspirewtf 1545 with a Mobility 3450.. how would that shit be on Crysis, GTA 4 and Grid?

That's not a massive screen.... *sigh* but anyway, there are certain settings which will have a huge impact upon the look of the game. Typically these are your texture detail settings.



You will not be able to play those games effectively with the M3450. They aren't even playable on that card unless you play below the native resolution and on low settings. If you want to go with ATI then I wouldn't drop lower than a 4650 or 3650. If you want to go Nvidia then don't drop lower than the 9600.

I like those cards because I believe they have a good balance for power/battery life. As long as the graphics settings are tweaked properly, those cards can play anything on the market with a smooth frame rate. If you want to purchase a gaming rig then don't buy a laptop... it defeats the purpose of a laptop (mobility). *sigh*

I run a GTX 295 and I think it is ok. Not that special.

I buy laptops for mobility. The logic in buying a gaming-rig/laptop just isn't there.

haha it so took me all day to find what to get for SIMS3, and i could of checked here?!

I'd go with GTX260 x2 in sli.

Sli GTX260 > all


At least in price : performance

Assuming your PSU can handle it. Most people don't have the 900W power supply required to do that.

Also, overclocking mid-range parts is a better route than buying ridiculously powerful parts and leaving them stock.

You need a minimum of 750w.

This guys is a complete noob. He has no clue what any of you are talking about. And he's not coming back.

ok bi.

Most people don't have 750w PSU's installed in their PCs. Nvidia and ATI both need to come out with powerful cards that don't suck up a lot of power. The average consumer computer comes with a 305/350/400w power supply installed (I repair them all the time). The only company that produces a decent card for a low wattage setting like that is ATI with their 4670 entry. It's the best low wattage graphics card available.

Graphics cards beyond the 4670 require a bigger badder PSU, and that's usually an extra $100.00 on top of the price of a new graphics card.

Well then maybe they shouldn't be wasting my mother f*ckin time with questions that involves spending money.


You want the best, you better spend some damn money.



EDIT: Dammit to hell.. I hate you and buttsex.


This is for a laptop... LAPTOPS CAN'T HAVE VIDEO CARDS REPLACED!!!!!!!!!!!






No you don't. Stop window shoppin at newegg claiming you own shit.


Unless of course... you can go ahead and take a picture of it with a spoon on top of your desktop. Until then... you're a liar and everyone should disregard your fantasy computer.

It's alright man. :) There isn't some grand answer for the "best bang for buck" solution. It's a case by case sort of thing.



I think she should have someone take a picture of her and her desktop spooning.

Damn my trollin didn't work.
