Title: New video card Post by: hedgekat on 2009 June 21, 17:30:07 I have been given a new video card but documentation and instructinos were not included. I need some info and assistance in installing.
The card is GeForce 7300 GT AGP DVI-TV DDR2 512Mb I was told I had to connect it to the power supply and it also has a cable that I have no idea what it is to connect to. It has three receptacles. One for the cable, one for the monitor (the 15 prong one?) and I have no idea what the 24+4 receptacle is for. My current system is Pentium 4 2800 GHZ with 1500 RAM and a GeForce Mx 420 Anyone out there have the 7300 card who can tell me what to expect from it? Any problems?

Might be to connect an old-fashioned or cheap analog VGA monitor to the DVI-I port of the card.Title: Re: New video card Post by: hedgekat on 2009 June 24, 18:50:07 Mainly I was wanting to know if this is a good card for Sims 2. I have heard a lot of people complain about problems with Nvidia cards in almost all series.
The card I have, though old, is problem free up to now, even though texture is blurry and a lot of lag on big lots. I don't want to change to something that works less well. Anyone have this card and it works great? Or have had it and it sucked? |
