Hello there! My name is Maddi and I really need help finding an upgrade for my graphics card. I have NEVER brought a graphics card before! Usually I just have my Dad or a friend do it for me but this time, I would like to shop for my own card. Sadly, I have no idea what to look for in a graphics card, what makes it good or bad, etc... So I am turning to the hardware geniuses at MMORPG for help and advice!
I am looking for a card that can play WoW, MW3, Skyrim, SWTOR, Guild Wars 2, TERA, and of course, Crysis 2 on Ultra settings! I can spend anywhere from $100 to $350 but I would love to get the best deal of course!
Some questions I have are:
If you get a really amazing graphics card, do you need an equally good processor? Do they have an affect on eachother?
Can I have two graphics cards? My current one and my new one.
So if you have any extra time, please help me find a new card! Thanks!
