Graphics Card

[nitin]

I have MSI 945GCM5-F V2 motherboard with Core2Duo 4400 @ 2.00 GHz and 2.46 GB of RAM. Would this graphics card work on my PC or could anyone suggest me one that does?
ZOTAC NVIDIA GeForce GT210 1 GB DDR3

It'll work, but it won't do much. What's your reason for adding it?

Thanks for the reply.
Will it provide enough graphics for games like Battlefield 3, FIFA 13, Batman etc?

That's kind of like asking if a Bicycle is fast enough to win a cross-country motorcycle race. You'll need something with an engine at least.

If you're at 1024x768 or 1280x1024 resolution, you could probably get away with a 7750. If you're at 1680x1050 or 1920x1080, get a 7770. In both instances, you'll still be playing with graphics on medium at best, if not on low.

Well...my PC sucks...thanks for the reply.

Hmm. I would just start saving for an entirely new PC. CPU is only a two core on top of being clocked low. Even with a new card the playability will still be pretty bad. Sucks I know, but what can you do.

You can get a $500-$600 machine you build yourself to make this game run decently. Not maxed, but a good experience.

Sorry, a GT 210 aint gonna cut it.

If you don't mind low settings / meager FPS, toss in a 7750 or even a 6670, and you'll be good to go.

People tend overestimate system requirements. I'm using a 6850 paired with a Phenom II X4 (=7770/ OC'd Core 2 Quad, more or less) at 2560x1440, and everything runs like butter (well, I do have 2 6850s... but crossfire doesn't work so well).
