Quoted from shank

motherboard is
ASUStek COmputer inc. P5LD2 -se
The GFX is 500 mb

Ok.. thats PCI-Express.. thats good news for you :P How many wwatts can your power supply deliver? We don’t want to choke it :)

how do i check that?

Maybe there is a possibility you have 2 graphic cards :) guess you will find out now, hehe. because you have to open your case to find out what power supply you have, before we can find a suitable graphic card.

I`m off for an hour or so will do that after i come back. ;)

Cool :) if you have a 400 watt+ PSU i can recommend this graphic card: http://www.agt.si/racunalniska-oprema/graficnekartice/gigabyte-radeon-hd-4670-1gb.html that seems like a real bang-for-the-buck graphid card, and a 400watt PSU can just manage that. As i recall it alone uses around 200 watts under load, so you will need the additional watts for the other components you have. a 350W can maybe also pull the load, but if you start experiencing intermittant crashes/reboots and such, and there is no way to fix it, you should consider buying a better power supply also :)

so if i get it to run tf2 at 60 fps it will be fine.

you won’t

and stop telling ppl to buy new gpus if cpu doesnt handle more than 30fps

that gpu @ 1024×768 will do fine and dandy with fps config

So what part of this message didn’t you read:

60 FPs.. phew.. that will be hard with the CPU and GPU you have. And no, you don’t have 2 GPUs :D and as i stated earlier, it will be hard for you to find parts. Especially RAM and the CPU. Graphic Card shouldn’t be so hard, since the current graphic card you have is a PCI-Express, right? :) If you have any idea what i mean?

RAM mainly boosts your loading times, and the amount of applications you can have open at the same time. But i could imagine that an old computer like yours, that TF2 lags alot when you open it at first, after you turned on your computer?

So well..

GraphicCard=FPS
CPU=FPS, loading times, can handle more processes at the same time
RAM=loading times, you can have more processes open without risking running out of memory.
HardDrive=Loading times.

?

If he gets the new GPU he can hit 60 FPS on reduced details, but im still recommending him a new CPU also. but as stated, it will be hard finding old parts like that. But maybe they got a better stock in his country, than mine :)
