A decent video card??

Postby kaptainfelix » Tue Jul 07, 2009 12:03 pm

I have a question about video cards.

I have a laptop and the video card is a NVIDIA GeForce 7000M (64mb) which I don't think is going to cut it with the following games -

Strike Fighters 2

Strike Fighters 2 Vietnam

Strike Fighters 2

IL-2 Strurmovik 1946

Are you planning on upgrading the current one?

If so, then forget it.

Few laptops accept upgrades beyond memory ones and even fewer allow you to change the GPU.


Gonna have to buy a desktop or a new laptop. Laptop are for portability, not gaming. If you buy a 'gaming laptop' then because of the power hungry parts the battery wears down so quickly that it basically becomes a desktop.

Ok so if I get a new laptop what spec. of video card do I need?

I'd rather use a laptop as I can use it in the bedroom OR the lounge
