will a GeForce 7800GS card inprove  the speed of my computer?

looks like your computer is pretty fast already. installing a new video card will not improve the core speed of your computer no matter what. to do that you need a new processor or more RAM.

I'd recommend you attach a AGP card of arounfd 256MB, something like NVidia

I just tried the Vista 57xx build and even with a P4 3.6 ghz, geforce fx 550 256mb graphic card and 1 gb of ram, it WAS SO SLOW. Even if the website requires only 1.6 ghz or what have you, Vista asks for alot of power. So unless Microsoft is willing to lower the vista components, your going to have to upgrade to at least the Geforce 6 series or your p4.  \n\nIf your willing to spend money, i recommend getting a PCI- express compatiable motherboard since PCI-express graphic cards will surpass the AGP and  the pCi express graphic cards ARE ALOTTTTTT CHEAPER!!! Besides that  =/

A 256 MB Nvidia GE-FORCE 7800 GTX.

Have a look at this testing site with benchmarked components including graphics cards\nhttp://www.reportlabs.com/testbed/

The cheapest one I can find is Gigabyte's dual core card with two 6800 GT cores and a total of 512MB.  The nearest 7800 GTX card with 512MB is about $200 more.

No.\nyou have to have the type of graphics card it recommends.\nthere is no way to "trick" your computer to think it has something it doesn/t

Yes, as long as you have an AGP slot (it is AGP isn't it) but that's ancient.  I believe there were also PCI versions of that card if I'm not mistaken.  If you aren't going to play games that's fine.  But in the computer world that card is as old as my grandmother, maybe older.  Why do you people like hanging on to the past, it's time to move on.  Step up to at least the ATi X700 or Geforce 6600 series.  And that's not even what I recommend for gaming.

If the eVGA card will do what you want it to, then buy it. Your system sounds like it's a few years old, so I wouldn't spend too much to upgrade it. nVidia (geforce) cards are definitely a better choice performance wise than what ATI offers in your price range. Check online to see if you can find benchmarks for the three cards you are considering and see how they stack up.

neither i would go for a nividia geforce 6600 GT 256MB this graphics card rocks and its also cheap \n\nor an nivdia geforce 6800 GT

Nvidia GeForce 7800, PCI-X, preferably with 512Mb of RAM. Very expensive, though.

Check the quality of your graphics card- the processing speed has limited affect on games. You may find your graphics card is within minimum requirements but below the recommended.

Basically, the more expensive the card, the better it is. Other than that go to Nvidia.com and check out the specs. The high the number of MIPs  the better the processor.

There are two things wrong here.  Number one, the Geforce 6200 does not have a PCI version.  There are PCIe versions and AGP versions.  I'll assume you meant PCIe.  Also, the 6200 isn't that great of a card either, if you were looking for the best bang for your buck and to get 30+ frames per second in most games the 6600GT would have been your best bet but that is neither here nor there now.  The first thing I'm going to tell you is to uninstall the 6200.  Then disable the onboard adapter either in Windows itself from the Device Manager or in the BIOS.  Then install the 6200.  See if that works.

2g processor ... 1g+ ram ...nvidia7800 or ati800

It's not bad, but if you're a gamer looking for more frames/sec, you may want to consider a graphics card that supports SLI(scalable link interface, it allows you to hook up two graphics card to share the load).\n\nHowever, the motherboard will also need to support SLI.\n\nBut, otherwise, that video card should be just fine.

YIKES, anything other than onboard video!!! Use the Geforce 2 with the newest NVIDIA drivers and you will far surpass anything the SIS chipset could offer. Then upgrade as soon as possible.
