Help scheda video

[Masteraf]

Ho questo pc un pò vecchiotto... ma valutando la situazione si può aggiornare per l'uso che ne faccio...

Pentium 4 1.70Ghz
MoBo P4VXASD2+ (ECS)
Video nVidia MX 400 64MB
Ram 1 gb (appena cambiata)

per giocare a livelli medio bassi su rFactor (online) in modo fluido su questo sistema va bene una ATI 9600 pro da 256mb?

Non conosco R-factory ma non penso che valga la pena spendere qualcosa per quel pc...inoltre dovresti controllare sul manuale se la porta AGP supporta sia i 3,3v che i 1,5v

AGP cards are backward and forward compatible within limits. 1.5 V-only keyed cards will not go into 3.3 V slots and vice versa, though "Universal" slots exist which accept either type of card. AGP Pro cards will not fit into standard slots, but standard AGP cards will work in a Pro slot. Some newer cards, like Nvidia's GeForce 6 series or ATI's Radeon X800 series, only have keys for 1.5 V to prevent them from installing in older mainboards without 1.5 V support. Some of the last modern cards with 3.3 V support were the Nvidia GeForce FX series and the ATI Radeon 9500/9700/9800(R350) (but not 9600/9800(R360)).

It is important to check voltage compatibility as some cards incorrectly have dual notches and some motherboards incorrectly have fully open slots. Furthermore, some poorly designed older 3.3 V cards incorrectly have the 1.5 V key. Inserting a card into a slot that does not support the correct signaling voltage may cause damage.

There are some proprietary exceptions to this rule. For example, Apple Power Macintosh computers with the (ADC) Apple Display Connector have an extra connector which delivers power to the attached display. Additionally, moving cards between computers of various CPU architectures may not work due to firmware issues.

Altrimenti quella scheda non ci va...
