Since the GPU on the HIS card is Radeon should I get a PCI card that is Radeon as well? Or is it ok to get a PCI card with an Nvidia GPU?

Should I also try to get a PCI card with 512 MB of memory?


You mentioned earlier that Windows 32 bit OS are only capable of supporting 3.25-3.5 GB of RAM. Is this for the memory sticks only or is for the total system memory? For example my PC has 3 X 1 GB sticks of RAM and the 512 MB of memory from the HIS graphics card for a total of 3.5 GB.

So if I were to get a PCI card with 512 MB of memory then I would need to replace a 1 GB stick of RAM with a 512 MB stick of RAM to keep it at a total of 3.5 GB. Is that right?

Can you re-read my previous post. I was editing it right around when you last replied. I add a few more questions.

Thanks.

just the memory sticks because if you got a 4gig videocard then you won't have any memory for windows to use.
